| 1 | Coherent interaction of atoms with a beam of light confined in a light cage显示文摘Controlling coherent interaction between optical fields and quantum systems in scalable,integrated platforms is essential for quantum technologies.Miniaturised,warm alkali-vapour cells integrated with on-chip photonic devices represent an attractive system,in particular for delay or storage of a single-photon quantum state.Hollow-core fibres or planar waveguides are widely used to confine light over long distances enhancing light-matter interaction in atomic-vapour cells.However,they suffer from inefficient filling times,enhanced dephasing for atoms near the surfaces,and limited light-matter overlap.We report here on the observation of modified electromagnetically induced transparency for a non-diffractive beam of light in an on-chip,laterally-accessible hollow-core light cage.Atomic layer deposition of an alumina nanofilm onto the light-cage structure was utilised to precisely tune the high-transmission spectral region of the light-cage mode to the operation wavelength of the atomic transition,while additionally protecting the polymer against the corrosive alkali vapour.The experiments show strong,coherent light-matter coupling over lengths substantially exceeding the Rayleigh range.Additionally,the stable non-degrading performance and extreme versatility of the light cage provide an excellent basis for a manifold of quantum-storage and quantumnonlinear applications,highlighting it as a compelling candidate for all-on-chip,integrable,low-cost,vapour-based photon delay. | Flavie Davidson-Marquis Julian Gargiulo Esteban Gómez-López Bumjoon Jang Tim Kroh Chris Müller Mario Ziegler Stefan A.Maier Harald Kübler Markus A.Schmidt Oliver Benson | 2021 | Light(Science & Applications)2021，10，7： | 1 |
