The excitation of the Rydberg states of the electrons induces an image current in the circuit to which the electrons are capacitively coupled. In contrast to the conventional microwave absorption measurement, this method makes it possible to resolve the transitions to high-lying Rydberg states of the surface electrons. We also show that this method can potentially be used to detect quantum states of a single electron, which would pave a way to utilize the quantum states of the surface electrons on liquid helium for quantum computing.}, title = {Image-Charge Detection of the Rydberg States of Surface Electrons on Liquid Helium}, volume = {123}, year = {2019} }
