Abstract

Mesoscopic circuits can be coupled to microwave cavities to form hybrid light-matter systems. This emerging field represents an intermediate regime between standard cavity and circuit quantum electrodynamics. In this paper, the authors develop a general method based on a photonic pseudo-potential to describe the electric coupling between electrons in a nanocircuit and cavity photons.
