    Abstract

    We investigate the critical phenomena of the asymmetric quantum Rabi model (AQRM), where parity symmetry is broken by an external bias. Through both analytical and numerical calculations, we identify second-order and first-order phase transitions, with the latter absent in the standard quantum Rabi model. We derive an analytical two-variable scaling function that describes the finite-frequency scaling behavior of the AQRM, and numerical results confirm this framework. The introduction of bias leads to additional critical exponents, including a bias-related critical exponent νh and susceptibility exponent γ. Moreover, we demonstrate that critical scaling persists even below the conventional critical coupling, indicating the emergence of field-induced quantum criticality. These findings establish a robust theoretical framework for understanding universal quantum criticality in light-matter systems.
