| dc.description.abstract | The 87Rb 49s->48s Rydberg state transition was rendered insensitive to electric field fluctuations about a 1V/cm dc electric field. This was accomplished by applying a non-resonant 38.445GHz microwave field to modify the electric dipole moment difference between the two states involved. This effect can be used to preserve the coherence of Rydberg state qubits in the presence of varying electric fields. | en |
