摘要
Trapped atoms on photonic structures inspire many novel quantum devices for quantum information processing and quantum sensing.Here,we demonstrate a hybrid photonic-atom chip platform based on a Ga N-onsapphire chip and the transport of an ensemble of atoms from free space towards the chip with an optical conveyor belts.Due to our platform’s complete optical accessibility and careful control of atomic motion near the chip with a conveyor belt,successful atomic transport towards the chip is made possible.The maximum transport efficiency of atoms is about 50%with a transport distance of 500μm.Our results open up a new route toward the efficient loading of cold atoms into the evanescent-field trap formed by the photonic integrated circuits,which promises strong and controllable interactions between single atoms and single photons.
