MEMS Vapor Cells-based Rydberg-atom Electrometry Toward Miniaturization and High Sensitivity

Rydberg-atom electrometry, as an emerging cutting-edge technology, features high sensitivity, broad bandwidth, calibration-free operation, and beyond. However, until now the key atomic vapor cells used for confining electric field-sensitive Rydberg atoms nearly made with traditional glass-blown techniques, hindering the miniaturization, integration, and batch manufacturing. Here, we present the wafer-level MEMS atomic vapor cells with glass-silicon-glass sandwiched structure that are batch-manufactured for both frequency stability and electric field measurement. We use specially customized ultra-thick silicon wafers with a resistivity exceeding 10,000 cm, three orders of magnitude higher than that of typical silicon, and a thickness of 6 mm, providing a 4-fold improvement in optical interrogation length. With the as-developed MEMS atomic vapor cell, we configured a high-sensitivity Rydberg-atom electrometry with the minimal detectable microwave field to be 2.8 mV/cm. This combination of miniaturization and sensitivity represents a significant advance in the state-of-the-art field of Rydberg-atom electrometry, paving the way for chip-scale Rydberg-atom electrometry and potentially opening up new applications in a wider variety of fields.

Open dynamical systems with a moving hole

Given an integer $b\ge 3$, let $T_b: [0,1)\to [0,1); x\mapsto bx\pmod 1$ be the expanding map on the unit circle. For any $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\omega=\omega^0\omega^1\ldots\in(\left\{0,1,\ldots,b-1\right\}^m)^\mathbb{N_0}$ let \[ K^\omega=\left\{x\in[0,1): T_b^n(x)\notin I_{\omega^n}~\forall n\geq 0\right\},\] where $I_{\omega^n}$ is the $b$-adic basic interval generated by $\omega^n$. Then $K^\omega$ is called the survivor set of the open dynamical system $([0,1),T_b,I_\omega)$ with respect to the sequence of holes $I_\omega=\left\{I_{\omega^n}: n\geq 0\right\}$. We show that the Hausdorff and lower box dimensions of $K^\omega$ always conincide, and the packing and upper box dimensions of $K^\omega$ also coincide. Moreover, we give sharp lower and upper bounds for the dimensions of $K^\omega$, which can be calculated explicitly. For any admissible $\alpha\leq \beta$ there exist infinitely many $\omega$ such that $\dim_H K^\omega=\alpha$ and $\dim_P K^\omega=\beta$. As applications we study badly approximable numbers in Diophantine approximation. For an arbitrary sequence of balls $\left\{B_n\right\}$, let $K\left(\left\{B_n\right\}\right)$ be the set of $x\in[0,1)$ such that $T_b^n(x)\notin B_n$ for all but finitely many $n\geq 0$. Assuming $\lim_{n\to\infty}\operatorname{diam} \left(B_n\right)$ exists, we show that $\dim_H K\left(\left\{B_n\right\}\right)=1$ if and only if $\lim_{n\to\infty}\operatorname{diam} \left(B_n\right)=0$. For any positive function $\phi$ on $\mathbb{N}$, let $E\left(\phi\right)$ be the set of $x\in[0,1)$ satisfying $|T_b^n (x)-x|\geq \phi(n)$ for all but finitely many $n$. If $\lim_{n\to\infty}\phi(n)$ exists, then $\dim_H E(\phi)=1$ if and only if $\lim_{n\to\infty}\phi(n)=0$. Our results can be applied to study joint spectral radius of matrices. We show that the finiteness property for the joint spectral radius of associated adjacency matrices holds true.

Projections of four corner Cantor set: total self-similarity, spectrum and unique codings

Given $\rho\in (0,1/4]$, the four corner Cantor set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ is a self-similar set generated by the iterated function system \[ \left\{(\rho x, \rho y), \quad(\rho x, \rho y+1-\rho),\quad (\rho x+1-\rho, \rho y),\quad(\rho x+1-\rho,\rho y+1-\rho)\right\}. \] For $\theta\in[0,\pi)$ let $E_\theta$ be the orthogonal projection of $E$ onto a line with an angle $\theta$ to the $x$-axis. In this paper we give a complete characterization on which the projection $E_\theta$ is totally self-similar. We also study the spectrum of $E_\theta $, which turns out that the spectrum of $E_\theta$ achieves its maximum value if and only if $E_\theta $ is totally self-similar. Furthermore, when $E_\theta$ is totally self-similar, we calculate its Hausdorff dimension and study the subset $U_\theta $ which consists of all $x\in E_\theta $ having a unique coding. In particular, we show that $\dim_H U_\theta=\dim_H E_\theta$ for Lebesgue almost every $\theta \in[0,\pi)$. Finally, for $\rho=1/4$ we describe the distribution of $\theta $ in which $E_\theta$ contains an interval. It turns out that the possibility for $E_\theta$ to contain an interval is smaller than that for $E_\theta$ to have an exact overlap.
