Towards Non-Linear X-ray Quantum Optics with Thin Film Cavities — •Kilian Heeg and Jörg Evers — Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik, Heidelberg, Germany

Thin film cavities with resonant iron-57 Mößbauer nuclei have proven to be a powerful system to study coherent light-matter interaction in the x-ray regime. Superradiance and the collective Lamb shift [1], electromagnetically induced transparency [2] and spontaneously generated coherences could be observed recently. In order to provide a full interpretation of the processes in the cavity, we establish a general quantum optical theory. This also opens the door to study quantum effects and the non-linear regime in such cavities. We discuss approaches and possible applications of this framework with the aim to determine if non-classical light states can be created in thin film cavities.
