We study single-photon transport in an array of coupled microcavities where two two-level atomic systems are embedded in two separate cavities of the array. We find that a single photon can be totally reflected by a single two-level system. However, two separate two-level systems can also create, between them, single-photon quasibound states. Therefore, a single two-level system in the cavity array can act as a mirror while a different type of cavity can be formed by using two two-level systems, acting as tunable mirrors, inside two separate cavities in the array. In analogy with superlattices in solid state physics, we call this cavity inside a coupled-cavity array a supercavity. This supercavity is the quantum analog of Fabry-Perot interferometers. Moreover, we show that the physical properties of this quantum supercavity can be adjusted by changing the frequencies of these two-level systems.
