description

Abstract The Hamiltonian model describing the interaction between a two-level atom with two electromagnetic localized modes in an imperfect one-dimensional photonic crystals is introduced. The possibility of generating Schroedinger-cat-like states of these defect modes is reported. The physical origin of this dynamical behaviour is pointed out.
