Abstract
Cooperative effects induced by light-matter interactions, such as Dicke superradiance, have been studied for decades since Dicke published his celebrated work in 1954. These studies have focused on light-matter interactions in atomic and molecular systems, and have led to spectacular experimental findings in the realm of cavity quantum-electrodynamics (QED). In standard cavity-QED, direct interactions between matter constituents are often weak and can be neglected. In this case, collective effects are solely due to effective interactions, which emerge from the microscopic interactions between matter constituents and a common cavity mode. Recent experimental advances have made it possible to monolithically integrate graphene and other two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), with optical microcavities, paving the way for fundamental studies of cavity QED at the nanometer scale with 2D materials as the active medium.
