(color online) Physical model sketch and Dicke state diagram. (a) Two atoms are trapped in a single mode cavity with different positions. The ground (excited) state of each atom is labeled as |g〉 (|e〉). γ and κ represent the decays of atoms and cavity, respectively. The coupling strengths between atom and cavity are denoted by g1 and g2 respectively. (b)–(d) The coupling and decay between the lowest four Dicke states for phases between two atoms ϕz = 0, π/2, and π, respectively. Here, we define the collective states .
