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…

Static dc electric field orientation effects on two-photon Rydberg EIT

Rob Behary, William Torg, Mykhailo Vorobiov +7

We examine the influence of a static dc electric field on Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT) resonances that involve highly excited Rydberg states. Our focus is on how…

Electron Beam Profiling via Rydberg Electromagnetically Induced Transparency in Rubidium Vapor with Crossed Laser beams

Rob Behary, Kevin Su, Nicolas DeStefano +9

We present an all-optical detection approach to determine the position and spatial profile of an electron beam based on quantum properties of alkali metal atoms. To measure the ele…

Non-perturbative 2D spatial measurements of electric fields within a plasma sheath

Mykhailo Vorobiov, Rob Behary, Will Torg +9

We introduce an all-optical quantum-enhanced diagnostic for electric fields in low-temperature plasmas. Trace amounts of rubidium vapor, added to argon plasma, allow us to produce…

Light shift suppression in a CPT magnetometer using linear polarization and double frequency interrogation

M. A. Maldonado, Yang Li, James A. McKelvy +5

We demonstrate a suppression of the light shift in a Coherent-Population-Trapping (CPT) atomic magnetometer by using linearly polarized light and a differential measurement between…

Electron beam characterization via fluorescence imaging of Rydberg states in atomic vapor

Rob Behary, Kevin Su, Nicolas DeStefano +9

We demonstrate an all-optical, minimally invasive method for electron beam (e-beam) characterization using Rydberg electrometry. The e-beam passes through a dilute Rb vapor prepare…
