Quantum routing of few photons using a nonlinear cavity coupled to two chiral waveguides

We investigate few-photon scattering properties in two one-dimensional waveguides chirally coupled to a nonlinear cavity.The quantum states of scattered few photons are solved analytically via a real-space approach,and the solution indicates the few-photon reflection and transmission properties.When inputting two photons of equal energy to resonate with the cavity,the propagation characteristics of the two photons will be interesting,which is different from the previous anti-bunching effects with a quantum emitter.More importantly,when the total energy of the two incident photons equals the energy of a nonlinear cavity accommodating two photons,influence of the bound state will become larger to result in disappearance of antibunching effect.However,the bound state has no effect on probability of routing to another waveguide.
