Abstract
This paper reports the results of numerical calculation of the output signal intensity emitted from a nanometer-sized particle (NP) located at the center of the surrounding NPs. A blown-up quantum walk model is used for these calculations. When the number of these NPs is as small as 4–6, the output signal intensity shows a drastic increase. This increasing feature agrees with the experimental results and implies that the dressed-photon–phonon autonomously transfers in a microscopic system composed of a small number of NPs, which is a typical off-shell scientific phenomenon.
