Controlling Collective Quasiparticle Dynamics Beyond Decoherence in Topological Interfaces

ABSTRACT Photonic environments with engineered chirality offer a practical route to coherence control at the nanoscale. We demonstrate that a symmetry‐broken plasmonic honeycomb lattice functions as a directional reservoir that preserves emitter coherence even in the weak‐coupling regime. Using a coupled‐dipole model linked to cascaded‐Lindblad dynamics, we find that spin‐momentum‐locked edge modes mediate unidirectional energy transfer and produce subradiant and superradiant dynamics over mesoscopic distances. Far‐field polarization maps (Stokes S 3 ) directly trace this phase preservation, while time‐domain simulations reveal sustained collective oscillations beyond the near field. Together, these results establish a design framework for chiral plasmonic interfaces that support coherence‐protected light‐matter interactions, providing an experimentally accessible path toward phase‐stable quantum photonic functionality at ambient conditions.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Photonic environments with engineered chirality offer a practical route to coherence control at the nanoscale. We demonstrate that a symmetry‐broken plasmonic honeycomb lattice functions as a directional reservoir that preserves emitter coherence even in the weak‐coupling regime. Using a coupled‐dipole model linked to cascaded‐Lindblad dynamics, we find that spin‐momentum‐locked edge modes mediate unidirectional energy transfer and produce subradiant and superradiant dynamics over mesoscopic distances. Far‐field polarization maps (Stokes S 3 ) directly trace this phase preservation, while time‐domain simulations reveal sustained collective oscillations beyond the near field. Together, these results establish a design framework for chiral plasmonic interfaces that support coherence‐protected light‐matter interactions, providing an experimentally accessible path toward phase‐stable quantum photonic functionality at ambient conditions.
