Twin-lattice atom interferometry

Martina Gebbe, Jan-Niclas Kirsten-Siemß, Matthias Gersemann +9 more

Inertial sensors based on cold atoms have great potential for navigation, geodesy, or fundamental physics. Similar to the Sagnac effect, their sensitivity increases with the space-time area enclosed by the interferometer. Here, we introduce twin-lattice atom interferometry exploiting Bose-Einstein condensates of rubidium-87. Our method provides symmetric momentum transfer and large areas offering a perspective for future palm-sized sensor heads with sensitivities on par with present meter-scale Sagnac devices. Our theoretical model of the impact of beam splitters on the spatial coherence is highly instrumental for designing future sensors.

Characterization of a velocity-tunable 87 Rb cold atomic source with a high-speed imaging technology

Feng Yan-Ying, Zhu Chang-Xing, Wang Xiao-Jia +3 more

This paper has developed and characterized a method to produce a velocity-tunable 87 Rb cold atomic source for atomic interferometry application. Using a high speed fluorescence imaging technology, it reports that the dynamic process of the atomic source formation is observed and the source performances including the flux and the initial velocity are characterized. A tunable atomic source with the initial velocity of 1.4∼2.6 m/s and the atomic source flux of 2 × 10 8 ∼ 6 × 10 9 atoms/s has been obtained with the built experimental setup.
