Fabrication and characterization of an electrically contacted vapor cell

Atomic Physics 2012-04-12 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We demonstrate the use of electrically contacted vapor cells to switch the transmission of a probe laser. The excitation scheme makes use of electromagnetically induced transparency involving a Rydberg state. The cell fabrication technique involves thinfilm based electric feedthroughs which are well suited for scaling this concept to many addressable pixels like in flat panel displays.
