Abstract
We herein developed and demonstrated a Zeeman frequency modulation scheme for improving the signal-to-noise ratio of microwave electric field measurement using Rydberg atoms. The spectra of the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and Autler-Townes splitting of Rydberg atoms is frequency modulated by an alternating current magnetic field. The signal-to-noise ratio of the corresponding dispersive error signal is enhanced more than 10 times than that of the original spectrum. Furthermore, we show that the slope of the dispersive error signal near the resonance of the Rydberg EIT can be used to characterize the weak microwave electric field amplitudes. The more intuitive and simpler structure compared with other existing frequency modulation technologies greatly reduces the difficulties of experiments and experimental data analysis.
