Phase-Resolved Rydberg Atom Field Sensing using Quantum Interferometry

Although Rydberg atom-based electric field sensing provides key advantages over traditional antenna-based detection, it remains limited by the need for a local oscillator (LO) for low-field and phase resolved detection. In this work, we demonstrate the general applicability of closed-loop quantum interferometric schemes for Rydberg field sensing, which eliminate the need for an LO. We reveal that the quantum-interferometrically defined phase and frequency of our scheme provides an internal reference that enables LO-free full 360 degree-resolved phase sensitivity. This internal reference can further be used analogously to a traditional LO for atom-based down-mixing to an intermediate frequency for lock-in-based phase detection, which we demonstrate by demodulating a four phase-state signal broadcast on the atoms.
