    • Rydberg state engineering: A comparison of tuning schemes for continuous frequency sensing

    Metadata Updated: October 15, 2022

    On-resonance Rydberg atom-based radio-frequency (RF) electric field sensing methods remain limited by the narrow frequency signal detection bands available by resonant transitions. The use ofan additional RF tuner field to dress or shift a target Rydberg state can be used to return a detuned signal field to resonance and thus dramatically extend the frequency range available for resonantsensing. Here we compare three distinct tuning schemes based on adjacent Rydberg transitions, which are shown to have distinct tuning characteristics and can be tuned with mechanisms based onthe tuning field frequency or field strength. We further show that a two-photon Raman feature can be used as an effective tuning mechanism separate from conventional Autler-Townes splitting. Wecompare our tuning schemes to AC Stark effect-based broadband RF field sensing and show that although the sensitivity is diminished as we tune away from a resonant state, it nevertheless can beused in configurations where there is a low density of Rydberg states, which would result in a weak AC Stark effect.
