The invention relates to the field of
electric field quantum measurement, in particular to a low-frequency
electric field measurement method and a three-
photon Rydberg
system. The low-frequency
electric field measurement method comprises the following steps: moving an atom
gas chamber containing cesium atoms to a low-frequency electric field to be measured; cesium atoms are driven by probe light to transition from a
ground state 6S1 / 2 to an
excited state 6P1 / 2; driving cesium atoms to jump from an
excited state 6P1 / 2 to an
excited state 9S1 / 2 through decoration light; driving the cesium atoms to transition from an excited state 9S1 / 2 to a higher
Rydberg state nP3 / 2 through coupled light to obtain Rydberg atoms; a photoelectric
detector is adopted to detect the absorption condition of the detection light; based on the absorption condition, an
oscilloscope is adopted to observe EIT spectrum change; based on the EIT spectrum change, obtaining a spectrum
frequency shift amount; and the electric
field intensity of the low-frequency electric field to be measured is calculated through the spectral
frequency shift amount and the
polarizability of the Rydberg atoms, so that the shielding problem of the atomic
air chamber to the low-frequency electric field can be reduced, the
spectral line width is narrower, and the electric field measurement resolution is greatly improved.
