Superfluorescent decay in quasiballistic disordered systems

TL;DR

This paper investigates superfluorescent decay in weakly disordered slabs, demonstrating how the cooperation number varies with mean free path and characterizing the emission directionality.

Contribution

It provides a theoretical analysis of superfluorescent decay in disordered systems using Maxwell-Bloch equations, highlighting the dependence on disorder parameters.

Findings

Cooperation number increases with mean free path.

Superfluorescent impulse emitted at a small angle to the slab.

Emission is isotropic in the plane direction.

Abstract

Superfluorescent decay in a weakly disordered slab is considered. By solving the Maxwell-Bloch equations we show, that the cooperation number increases with increasing of the mean free path. Superfluorescent impulse is emitted at a small angle to the slab, isotropically in a plane direction.
