Spatially extended systems consisting of separated quantum emitters or resonators that couple via propagating photons are key to implementations of many quantum technologies, including quantum communication and quantum computing applications. Quasinormal modes (QNMs) are solutions to a Helmholtz equation with open boundary conditions. Hence, QNMs are a powerful tool for calculating the resonances of open optical cavities including dispersive plasmonic nanoparticles.
However, the focus of study so far has mostly been on single cavities or coupled resonators with small spatial separation. We extend the quantized QNM theory to the case of multiple, distant cavities and define parameters to determine when a separate treatment of the individual systems is possible. We also include quantum emitters in the theory. Using a bath of propagating photons, we derive system-bath correlation functions to rigorously describe the time delayed interactions between the QNM cavities and quantum emitters that give rise to feedback-induced phenomena.
