Hong-Ou-Mandel Interference between Two Deterministic Collective Excitations in an Atomic Ensemble

We demonstrate deterministic generation of two distinct collective excitations in one atomic ensemble, and we realize the Hong-Ou-Mandel interference between them. Using Rydberg blockade we create single collective excitations in two different Zeeman levels, and we use stimulated Raman transitions t...
