"stable radio signal applied to glass container filled with atoms... detect energy shifts in Rydberg atoms modulate carrier signal... modulated output fed to television... analog-to-digital converter transforms signal into video graphics array format for display... beam size affects average time atoms remain in laser interaction zone... time inversely related to bandwidth of receiver... shorter time and smaller beam produce more data... atoms move in and out so smaller areas result in higher refresh rate and better resolution"
