- Abstract: Maintaining the coherence in quantum systems is interesting in both fundamental physics and quantum information processing. In particular, suppressing the dephasing caused by thermal fluctuations in quantum systems can potentially enable functional quantum devices. Techniques to reduce motional dephasing of quantum superpositions include spin echo and bang-bang. In this paper, we demonstrate the effectiveness of a novel protocol on a collective quantum superposition state known as a Rydberg polariton. These collective states are potentially important in the context of single photon sources, optical transistor, all-optical quantum gates and fast read-out of quantum information. However progress in Rydberg polariton quantum technology has been hindered by fast motional dephasing on which no effective methods exist for undoing it. Here, we show how our protocol via optical dressing using Raman lasers cancels dephasing and enhances coherence times by more than an order of magnitude.

Storing quantum information requires battling quantum decoherence, which results in a loss of information over time.
To achieve error-resistant quantum memory, one would like to store the information in a quantum superposition of degenerate states engineered in such a way that local sources of noise cannot change one state into another.
We show that this platform also allows to detect and correct certain types of errors en route to the goal of true error-resistant quantum memory.

We propose a protocol for the amplified detection of low-intensity terahertz radiation using Rydberg tweezer arrays.
During a sensing phase, it harnesses strong terahertz-range transitions between highly excited Rydberg states to capture individual terahertz photons.
During an amplification phase, it exploits the Rydberg facilitation mechanism which converts a single terahertz photon into a substantial signal of Rydberg excitations.

We consider an ensemble of Alkali atoms that are continuously optically pumped and probed.
Due to the collective scattering of photons at large optical depth, the steady state of atoms does not correspond to an uncorrelated tensor-product state.
We find and characterize regimes of Raman lasing, akin to the model of a superradiant laser.

We introduce a single-photon detector design operating in the microwave domain based on a weakly nonlinear metamaterial.
We show that the single-photon detection fidelity increases with the length of the metamaterial to approach one at experimentally realistic lengths.
In stark contrast to conventional photon detectors operating in the optical domain, the photon is not destroyed by the detection and the photon wavepacket is minimally disturbed.

We show that using fast Rabi flopping and strong Rydberg atom interactions, both in the order of gigahertz, can overcome the Doppler effect.
In this regime, self-induced transparency emerges when areas of the nanosecond pulse are determined primarily by the Rydberg atom interaction.
