Rydberg atom reception of a handheld UHF frequency-modulated two-way radio

February 10, 2026
Author(s)
Noah Schlossberger, Tate McDonald, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Christopher Holloway
Rydberg atoms, due to their large polarizabilities and strong transition dipole moments, have been utilized as sensitive electric field sensors. While their ability to detect modulated signals has been previously demonstrated, these studies have largely

Two-dimensional imaging of electromagnetic fields via light sheet fluorescence imaging with Rydberg atoms

November 24, 2025
Author(s)
Noah Schlossberger, Tate McDonald, Kevin Su, Rajavardhan Talashila, Robert Behary, Charles L. Patrick, Eugeniy E. Mikhailov, Seth Aubin, Irena Nokivoka, Christopher Holloway, Nikunjkumar Prajapati
Imaging of electric and magnetic fields is limited by the fact that conventional field probes rely on conductive elements that perturb the fields they are meant to measure and require either spatial scanning or arrays to produce field maps. Atomic sensors

Imaging of induced surface charge distribution effects in glass vapor cells used for Rydberg atom-based sensors

June 1, 2025
Author(s)
Charles Patrick, Noah Schlossberger, Daniel Hammerland, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Tate McDonald, Samuel Berweger, Rajavardhan Talashila, Alexandra Artusio-Glimpse, Christopher Holloway
We demonstrate the imaging of localized surface electric (E) field effects on the atomic spectrum in a vapor cell used in Rydberg atom-based sensors. These surface E-fields can result from an induced electric charge distribution on the surface. Induced
