However, the available laser beams matched with a vapor of alkali metal atoms (such as rubidium or cesium) cannot simultaneously provide a perfect circularly polarized state and the desired profile (Gaussian beam), which are essential conditions for polarizing alkali metal atoms used in OPMs. Currently, the conventional approaches adopt a complex optical system involving beam shapers (i.e., spatial light modulators), waveplates, and additional functional lenses, which bring limitations of bulkiness, complex adjustments, and high cost in OPMs. Here, we report a new high-quality atom-manipulation approach using an angular-tilted Pancharatnam–Berry (PB) metasurface for high-sensitivity miniaturized OPMs. By precisely engineering the nanostructures of each amorphous silicon meta-atom, the metasurface is capable of efficiently converting incident light at a specific wavelength (770 nm) into a desired circularly polarized state with a predetermined deflection angle. Simultaneously, it has the ability to shape the wavefront to generate an ideal Gaussian profile, accurately achieving atom spin polarization for high-sensitivity miniaturized X-ray-guided OPMs. The deflection angle can efficiently eliminate zero-level noise and achieve full conversion. We experimentally found that the angular-tilted PB metasurface-based OPM with a potassium small vapor cell can implement a sensitivity lower than 400 fT/Hz<sup>1/2</sup>, which is higher performance than conventional optical methods. This approach provides a new perspective for miniaturized OPMs to precisely measure the magnetic field in various applications.","PeriodicalId":23,"journal":{"name":"ACS Photonics","volume":"221 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142588410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By precisely modulating the thickness of the planar optical resonator, we can tune the ground states of two lower polariton branches to perfectly match the energies of two vibrational modes and consequently trigger polariton condensation in both branches. These condensates have nearly identical thresholds. Dynamical analysis indicates that efficient energy relaxation of the photogenerated excitons to the two vibrational modes through the nonradiation of two separately vibrational quanta enables polaritons to populate the ground states of these two lower polariton branches.
