Until now, a giant atom’s radiative behaviour has differed from that of its smaller counterparts, exhibiting population trapping when coupling points were closely spaced. However, calculations demonstrate that when the distance, *d*, between these coupling points exceeds the coherent length, *L*, the giant atom’s dynamics become Markovian, mirroring a small atom’s response. This control over spontaneous emission, achieved by adjusting energy spa…
