Abstract
Superradiance and subradiance are collective effects that emerge from coherent interactions between quantum emitters. Due to their many-body nature, theoretical studies of extended samples with length larger than the atomic transition wavelength are usually restricted to their early time behavior or to the few-excitation limit. We use herein a mean-field approach to reduce the complex many-body system to an effective two-atom master equation that includes all correlations up to second order and that can be numerically propagated in time. We find that three-dimensional and two-dimensional inverted atomic arrays sustain superradiance below a critical lattice spacing and quantify the scaling of the superradiant peak for both dimensionalities. Finally, we study the late-time dynamics of the system and demonstrate that a subradiant phase appears before the system finally relaxes.
