Project description
Studying coherent optical phenomena in Rydberg atoms
Studying coherent optical phenomena in Rydberg atoms is crucial owing to their potential to revolutionise quantum photonics, paving the way for advancements in quantum computing, information storage and light manipulation. The EU-funded CPIRA project will use vortex beams to explore parity-time symmetry in Rydberg atoms. The proposed research aims to develop innovative models for magnetic field measurements and probe energy transformation from zero order of diffraction to the higher orders in the PT symmetry condition. Furthermore, the project will support the personal and professional growth of the fellow involved, enhancing their skills in communication and management.
Objective
The project is devoted to theoretical studies of coherent optical phenomena in multilevel Rydberg atoms under external magnetic field by using vortex beams. The applicant will investigate the parity-time (PT) symmetry condition via optical vortex light in Rydberg atoms. Then, he will proposed a novel model for efficient transformation of the probe energy from zero order of diffraction to the higher orders in the PT symmetry condition. After that he will propose a model for measurement of external magnetic field as well as orbital angular momentum transfer in a Rydberg atom via optical vortex light. It is expected that these studies will lead to future feasible experiments, and have technological impact on quantum photonics applications in EIT-based devices, storage and manipulation of light, quantum computing and information. In addition, the project will contribute to the personal and professional growth of the fellow, via training of his communication, management and other soft skills.
