Advancing Rydberg atom-based RF sensors: integrated dielectric amplifiers in MEMS atomic vapor cells

Somayeh M. A. Mirzaee, Su‐Peng Yu, Sanyasi Rao Bobbara +5 more

Engineered, metamaterial vapor cells are useful for high-sensitivity Rydberg atom-based radio frequency (RF) sensors. We present recent advancements on a photonic crystal receiver (PCR) fabricated using MEMS technology for sensitive RF field detection. Beyond the established operational principles leveraging electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) within alkali atom ensembles, we describe critical factors impacting the performance of the PCR, namely the generation of electric fields arising from Cesium atom interactions with the vapor cell materials. Through X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analysis of the glass and silicon components, we determine the amount of Cesium that is adsorbed to the glass and silicon surfaces. The insights into surface adsorption and its control are crucial for improving the stability and practical applicability of PCR-based RF sensors, as well as other types of MEMS vapor cells.

Development of a Cesium Vapor MEMS Cell for Differential Measurement of Microwave Electromagnetically Induced Transparency

Jingtong Zhu, Rui Zhao, Zhonghao Li +5 more

In this paper, we develop a cesium vapor MEMS cell with dual-cavity to measure the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) effect. The vapor cell was shaped by a deep-etching silicon wafer and two BF33 glass covers with a two-step anodic bonding process. By using a near-infrared spectroscopy laser with the wavelength of 1455 nm, the cesium dispenser sealed in the vapor cell was dispensed. The Rydberg EIT spectra of the fabricated vapor MEMS cell were characterized experimentally and enhanced effectively by introducing two paths probe laser (852 nm). This proposal provides a sensitive and miniaturized sensing method for the measurement of the EIT effect and has a prospect for the applications of integrated quantum microwave field intensity meter.

Toward the Measurement of Microwave Electric Field Using Cesium Vapor MEMS Cell

Rui Zhao, Mengyang Feng, Jingtong Zhu +6 more

In this letter, we demonstrate an approach for the measurement of microwave electric field intensity based on Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT)– Autler Townes (AT) splitting effect using a cesium vapor MEMS cell. The atomic absorption characteristics at different pump powers were obtained experimentally, which proved the feasibility of fabricated cesium vapor MEMS cell. The dependence of EIT-AT splitting separations on the microwave electric field intensities at 23.887 GHz was investigated at room temperature, and the minimum microwave electric field was measured to be 2 V/m. This approach indicates that the prepared cesium vapor MEMS cell can be qualified for microwave electric field intensity measurement, and has tremendous potential for the development of integrating quantum microwave field intensity meters.
