MHz to sub-kHz field detection with an all-dielectric potassium Rydberg-atom sensor
Daniel Hammerland, Rajavardhan Talashila, Dixith Manchaiah +8
Rydberg sensors have significant promise as an alternative to the antenna systems used for sub-MHz frequency communications, where the scale of high-efficiency antennas is often im…
Simultaneous Detection, Demodulation, and Angle-of-Arrival Determination of Communication Signals Using a Dual Ladder Rydberg Receiver
Stone B. Oliver, Samuel Berweger, Eugeniy E. Mikhailov +4
In a typical Rydberg mixer, modulated communication signals are detected using a radio frequency (RF) heterodyne technique. The mixer outputs an intermediate frequency (IF), which…
Atomic and molecular systems for radiation thermometry
Stephen P. Eckel, Eric B. Norrgard, Christopher Holloway +3
Atoms and simple molecules are excellent candidates for new standards and sensors because they are both all identical and their properties are determined by the immutable laws of q…
Sensitivity Comparison of Rydberg Atom-Based Radio-Frequency Electric Field Detection: Ionization Current Versus Optical Readout
Dangka Shylla, Rajavardhan Talashila, Alexandra Artusio-Glimpse +7
We investigate a technique for detecting radio-frequency (RF) electric fields in a Cesium (Cs) vapor cell at room temperature by collecting charge from ionized Rydberg atoms and co…
An Imaging Radar Using a Rydberg Atom Receiver
William J. Watterson, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Rodrigo Castillo-Garza +5
Rydberg atoms in a gas form are highly sensitive electric field probes capable of detecting and measuring the amplitude, phase, and polarization of broadband time-varying signals.…
Wafer-level fabrication of all-dielectric vapor cells enabling optically addressed Rydberg atom electrometry
Alexandra B. Artusio-Glimpse, Adil Meraki, Hunter Shillingburg +8
Rydberg-atom electrometry enables highly sensitive electric-field measurements by exploiting the extreme polarizability of Rydberg states in alkali atoms. Millimeter-scale atomic v…
