cavity quantum electrodynamics
Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics (cavity QED) is a branch of physics that explores the interaction between light and matter by confining both inside a small volume known as a cavity. It investigates how atoms or other quantum systems can emit and absorb photons, leading to phenomena such as spontaneous emission, energy level shifts, and enhanced light-matter coupling, enabling the study of fundamental quantum processes.
