Nonlinear optics traditionally involves macroscopic atomic ensembles or solid-state crystals. The observation of a nonlinear two-photon resonance in a system consisting of one single atom trapped inside an optical cavity demonstrates nonlinear optics at the level of individual quanta.

The quantum-optical Josephson interferometer (2008, unknown): “Solving for p̂2 and ŝ, respectively, we obtain a system of two coupled equations, from which the steady-state solution is found to be |〈p̂2〉ss| = |Ẽ|/{J̃ [1+γ γ2/(4J̃ 2)]}, and hence equation (3).”
Cavity-based quantum networks with single atoms and optical photons (2014, background): “…the generation of continuous quantum light fields with atom-cavity systems, see e.g. (Armen et al., 2009; Birnbaum et al., 2005; Dayan et al., 2008; Koch et al., 2011; Kubanek et al., 2008; Ourjoumtsev et al., 2011; Rempe et al., 1991; Schuster et al., 2008; Tiecke et al., 2014; Volz et al., 2014).”
Quantum nonlinear optics with single photons enabled by strongly interacting atoms (2012, unknown): “τc is estimated using the single-atom EIT linewidths (γ EIT , γ 4 EIT , γ ◦ EIT , γ EIT ) = 2π× (6-16,18-26,29-36,50) MHz, and varies from 60 to 330 ns.”
Circuit quantum electrodynamics (2010, background): “[68], previous investigations were primarily concerned with effects on photon correlations and fluorescence, as observed in photon-counting measurements [55, 57].”
Colloquium: Strongly interacting photons in one-dimensional continuum (2016, methodology): “Cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) is a paradigmatic discipline (Haroche and Raimond, 2013; Miller et al., 2005; Walther et al., 2006) exhibiting effective photon-photon interactions in the quantum regime (Birnbaum et al., 2005; Schuster et al., 2008).”
Microwave photonics with superconducting quantum circuits (2017, methodology): “Dispersive readout is not the only way to measure the qubit state; the JC nonlinearity can also be used for that purpose [114, 334, 355, 356, 362, 363].”
Interaction between Atomic Ensembles and Optical Resonators: Classical Description (2011, background): “Studies have concentrated on fundamental aspects of the system such as the vacuum Rabi splitting [3, 7, 22–27], nonclassical light generation [14,15,18,19,28–31], single-atom maser [5] and laser operation [32], or superradiance in the case of many atoms [3, 33, 34].”
