Abstract
We introduce the complex band structure and a medium-dependent (Green's function) quantum-optics formalism to study the enhanced spontaneous emission factors and Lamb shifts from a quantum dot or atom near the surface of a slow-light metamaterial waveguide. Using a realistic loss factor of $\ensuremath{\gamma}/2\ensuremath{\pi}=2\text{ }\text{THz}$, Purcell factors of approximately 250 and 100 are found at optical frequencies for $p$-polarized and $s$-polarized dipoles, respectively, placed 28 nm $(0.02{\ensuremath{\lambda}}_{0})$ above the slab surface. For smaller loss values, we demonstrate that the slow-light regime of odd metamaterial waveguide propagation modes can be observed and related to distinct resonances in the Purcell factors. Correspondingly, we predict unusually large and rich Lamb shifts of approximately $\ensuremath{-}1$ to $\ensuremath{-}6\text{ }\text{GHz}$ for a dipole moment of 50 Debye. We also make a direct calculation of the far-field-emission spectra which contains direct measurable access to these enhanced Purcell factors and Lamb shifts.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
