Trapping single atoms on a nanophotonic circuit with configurable tweezer lattices

May E. Kim, Tzu-Han Chang, Brian M. Fields +2 more

Trapped atoms near nanophotonics form an exciting platform for bottom-up synthesis of strongly interacting quantum matter. The ability to induce tunable long-range atom-atom interactions with photons presents an opportunity to explore many-body physics and quantum optics. Here we implement a configurable optical tweezer array over a planar photonic circuit tailored for cold atom integration and control for trapping and high-fidelity imaging of one or more atoms in an array directly on a photonic structure. Using an optical conveyor belt formed by a moving optical lattice within a tweezer potential, we show that single atoms can be transported from a reservoir into close proximity of a photonic interface, potentially allowing for the synthesis of a defect-free atom-nanophotonic hybrid lattice. Our experimental platform can be integrated with generic planar photonic waveguides and resonators, promising a pathway towards on-chip many-body quantum optics and applications in quantum technology.

Enabling Lasing Action in Hybrid Atomic–Nanophotonic Integrated Structures

Hadiseh Alaeian, Brian Odom, Jorge Bravo‐Abad

Abstract The incorporation of neutral atoms in nanophotonic structures offers significant potential to realize novel quantum optical devices. Here, the possibility of creating low‐threshold integrated lasers in hybrid systems based on coupling room‐temperature atomic gases with both dielectric and metallic nanophotonic systems is investigated. Two different classes of devices resulting from incorporating an optically pumped Rb–ethane mixture in a dielectric ring resonator and a plasmonic lattice are studied. It is shown that the combination of the optical gain provided by the atomic vapor, along with the unique field‐confinement properties of nanophotonic structures, enables the generation of coherent radiation, that is, laser light, at moderate power levels. In addition, general design guidelines for these hybrid nanophotonic lasers are provided. These results pave the way toward a novel class of active nanophotonic and metamaterial systems.
