Nonreciprocal Photon Blockade Based on Zeeman Splittings Induced by a Fictitious Magnetic Field

Quantum nonreciprocity,such as nonreciprocal photon blockade,has attracted a great deal of attention due to its unique applications in quantum information processing.Its implementation primarily relies on rotating nonlinear systems,based on the Sagnac effect.Here,we propose an all-optical approach to achieve nonreciprocal photon blockade in an on-chip microring resonator coupled to a V-type Rb atom,which arises from the Zeeman splittings of the atomic hyperfine sublevels induced by the fictitious magnetic field of a circularly polarized control laser.The system manifests single-photon blockade or multi-photon tunneling when driven from opposite directions.This nonreciprocity results from the directional detunings between the countercirculating probe fields and the V-type atom,which does not require the mechanical rotation and facilitates integration.Our work opens up a new route to achieve on-chip integrable quantum nonreciprocity,enabling applications in chiral quantum technologies.
