Abstract

QED-model for the multichain qubit system with interactions of qubits and chains between themselves on the example of the system of $\sigma$-polarons in carbon zigzag nanotubes, interacting with quantized EM-field, is considered analytically. The possibility of experimental detection of Rabi waves in conventional stationary optical experiments for any quasi-1D system with strong electron-photon interaction is predicted.
