We investigate the propagation of few-photon Fock-states in a one-dimensional waveguide scattered by two dipole-dipole coupled atoms. Using a scattering method based on the Lippmann-Schwinger equation [1], we study photon-photon correlations of the photons in the reflected and transmitted field. Depending on the dipole-dipole interaction strength, we observe highly damped oscillations in the second-order correlation function. To increase the visibility, we introduce quantum coherent time-delayed feedback [2] by terminating one end of the waveguide by a resonator, acting as a mirror. Our results clearly show that the dipole-dipole induced quantum beats can be intensified and stabilized where the long-time beating frequency is sensitive to the dipole-dipole interaction strength. Since the interaction strength depends strongly on the separation of the emitters, our method may provide a way to probe interatomic coupling and distances on a deep subwavelength scale.
