Abstract
Quantum emitters interacting through a waveguide setup have been proposed as a promising platform for basic research on light-matter interactions and quantum information processing. We propose to augment waveguide setups with the use of multiport devices. Specifically, we demonstrate theoretically the possibility of exciting $N$-qubit subradiant, maximally entangled, states with the use of suitably designed $N$-port devices. Our general methodology is then applied based on two different devices: an epsilon-and-mu-near-zero waveguide hub and a nonreciprocal circulator. A sensitivity analysis is carried out to assess the robustness of the system against a number of nonidealities. These findings link and merge the designs of devices for quantum state engineering with classical communication network methodologies.
