Abstract

We use time-domain numerical simulations of a two-dimensional scattering system to study the interaction of a collection of emitters resonantly coupled to an Anderson-localized mode. For a low electric-field intensity, we observe strong coupling between the emitters and the mode, which is characterized by linear Rabi oscillations. Remarkably, a higher intensity induces a nonlinear interaction between the emitters and the mode, referred to as the dynamical Stark effect, resulting in nonlinear Rabi oscillations. The transition between the two regimes is observed and an analytical model is proposed which accurately describes our numerical observations.
