Atom Interferometer Gyroscope with Spin-Dependent Phase Shifts Induced by Light near a Tune-Out Wavelength

Raisa Trubko, James Greenberg, Michael T. St. Germaine +4 more

Tune-out wavelengths measured with an atom interferometer are sensitive to laboratory rotation rates because of the Sagnac effect, vector polarizability, and dispersion compensation. We observed shifts in measured tune-out wavelengths as large as 213 pm with a potassium atom beam interferometer, and we explore how these shifts can be used for an atom interferometer gyroscope.

Polarization-Based Control of Spin-Orbit Hybrid Modes of Light in Biphoton Interference

Cody C. Leary, Maggie Lankford, Deepika Sundarraman

We report the experimental generation of a class of spin-orbit hybrid modes via an asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometer, whose intensity and polarization distributions may be tuned by manipulating the polarization state of the interferometer input beam. In the case of an equivalent biphoton input, we predict that this device will exhibit biphoton (Hong-Ou-Mandel) interference in conjunction with these mode transformations.

Interferometry via the Dirac Notation

F.J. Duarte

The genesis of quantum optics can be found in the Dirac discussion on interference as disclosed in The Principles of Quantum Mechanics . This is a masterful and prophetic discussion that begins by considering a roughly monochromatic light source. The discussion continues by considering a beam of light consisting of a large number of photons. Besides Dirac, useful references on interferometry include Steel, Meaburn and Born and Wolf. The Hanbury Brown–Twiss effect originates in interferometric measurements performed by an “intensity interferometer” used for astronomical observations. A diagram of the stellar intensity interferometer used to determine the diameter of stars is depicted. Two-beam interferometers are optical devices that divide and then recombine a light beam. It is on recombination of the beams that interference occurs. The most well-known two-beam interferometers are the Sagnac interferometer, the Mach–Zehnder interferometer, and the Michelson interferometer.
