报告摘要：
In this presentation, I will firstly introduce the background of waveguide quantum electrodynamics (QED) and its applications. Secondly, I will introduce the analytical expression of the nth-order equal-time correlation functions. Based on the analytic solution, I mainly introduce the perfect photon blockade (PB) effect induced by the chiral interaction in waveguide-cavity QED system. Specifically, the destructive interference of two-photon paths only appears in the chiral region. We find that the perfect PB points rise as the number of cavities increases, and the required chirality also decreases exponentially. Lastly, I will introduce our recent work regarding the exotic long-range interaction and the associating quantum many-body phases in topological waveguide QED system. We theoretically predict a kind of power-law-exponential (PLE) dipole-dipole interaction between quantum emitters. Applying PLE interaction to a spin model, we find that PLE interaction can induce the unique ordered and critical spiral phases in comparison with other types of interaction, owing to the strong frustration of PLE interaction. Our works is of fundamental interest in interest in enriching the waveguide QED system by introducing the chiral and the exotic long-range interaction, and has potential applications in the on-chip single-photon source with integrability and quantum simulation of strong correlated matters.
