Review of cold Rydberg atoms and their applications

Abstract: We present an introductory review of the latest advancements cold Rydberg atom research. First, we briefly summarize the exaggerated properties of Rydberg atoms, and we discuss the new perspectives of Rydberg atom research that has been enabled by laser cooling and trapping technique. We then highlight the latest developments and achievements in the newly emerged research fields for Rydberg molecules and cold neutral plasmas. Various applications of the Rydberg blockade effect for quantum optics and quantum in… Show more

“…A precise scheme design goes however behind the scope of this work, and may be subject of future investigations. Incidentally, we note that previous theoretical studies of dipolar and Rydberg atoms on a ring [66][67][68] have focused on other aspects of their rich physics.…”

“…From Eq. (22) we can see that by decreasing the magnetic field B AC , it decreases the degeneracy D of the system. As a consequence, fewer atoms can be accommodated on each LAC level and the atomic population of the highest (p + 1)th energy level will range from completely full to entirely empty.…”

“…It can be seen that, in the * 4 28 n < < range of effective quantum numbers, the data of the experiment and the stochastic theory (solid curves) agree with each other (although measurements Associative ionization rate constants for Na*(nl) + Na(3s) collisions in a single beam [53] (frames (a,b)) and in two orthogonal crossed beams [66] (frames (c,d)), T = 600 K. Figure 12 shows the results of more recent experiments [53,66] on AI rate constants measurements, the authors of which took into account the effects of free electrons escaping due to atoms photoionization by black body radiation.…”

“…The main feature of Rydberg particles is their extremely big size~n 2 (where n is the principal quantum number), which results in huge dipole moments. This opens up unique opportunities for both the controlled and addressed management of quantum states by external electromagnetic fields [4], and for the creation of long-lived coherent (entangled) states in cold Rydberg media due to the long range dipole-dipole interaction between the medium particles [5,6]. Therefore, the cold Rydberg atoms are considered to be promising objects for solving the problems of quantum information.…”
