Abstract

We reply on the comment [Opt. Lett.41, 5821 (2016)10.1364/OL.41.005821OPLEDP0146-9592] regarding our Letter [Opt. Lett.40, 3536 (2015)OPLEDP0146-959210.1364/OL.40.003536], where a dissipative driven bosonic mode strongly coupled to a two-level system is studied. We show that the authors of the comment erroneously claim that the Monte Carlo simulation is insufficient. More important is the basic statement of the comment about the vanishing width of the spectral line. This means that the plasmon spectral line vanishes at a large external field. The authors of the comment do not distinguish the averages of the observables from the quasi-averages that are quite different in multistable systems where ergodicity is challenged.
