The proposed long-range super-Coulombic DDI may be observed (a) between single-photon defect centres in natural hyperbolic media (for example, h-BN, Bi₂Se₃ and Bi₂Te₃) or (b) between ultra-cold atoms trapped above a hyperbolic meta-surface. (c,d) The super-Coulombic interaction occurs over a broad range of frequencies along the resonance angle of a hyperbolic medium and causes the effective interaction distance to approach zero irrespective of the physical distance.
