One-Atom Maser
Abstract
The exchange of photons between single Rydberg atoms and a single mode of a superconducting cavity with a quality factor $Q=8\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{8}$ at 2 K was observed. Signals could still be detected with an average number of only 0.06 atom simultaneously in the cavity. With one Rydberg atom the linewidth of the maser transition at about 21 GHz was power broadened and at higher densities asymmetry of the transition was observed, which is ascribed to an ac Stark effect.

“In both the optical [15, 25] and microwave [26, 27, 28, 29, 30] domains, strong coupling of single atoms and photons has been achieved by utilizing electromagnetic resonators of small mode volume V m with quality factors Q ∼ 10 7 − 10 11 .”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
