Abstract
In a general aspect, a system is described for sensing radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic fields. The system includes a laser system that generates probe and coupling laser signals. The system also includes an RF source that generates a reference RF electromagnetic field. The reference RF electromagnetic field is part of a combined RF electromagnetic field that also includes a perturbing RF electromagnetic field. A vapor cell sensor of the system generates an optical signal in response to the probe laser signal, the coupling laser signal, and the combined RF electromagnetic field interacting with a vapor of the vapor cell sensor. The system additionally includes a control system that tunes the coupling laser signal and the reference RF electromagnetic field relative to respective transitions of the vapor. The control system generates, based on the optical signal, a value that represents a property of the perturbing RF electromagnetic field.
