The gravimeter based on atom interferometry has potentially wide applications on building the gravity networks, geophysics as well as gravity assisted navigation. Here, we demonstrate experimentally a portable atom gravimeter operating in the noisy urban environment. Despite the influence of noisy external vibrations, our portable atom gravimeter reaches a sensitivity as good as 65 uGal/\sqrt{Hz} and a resolution of 1.1 uGal after 4000 s integration time, being comparable to state-of-the-art atom gravimeters. Our achievement paves the way for bring the portable atom gravimeter to field applications, such as gravity survey on a moving platform.The gravimeter based on atom interferometry has potentially wide applications on building the gravity networks, geophysics as well as gravity assisted navigation.

Efficient photon sorter in a high-dimensional state space

Warner A. Miller

An increase in the dimension of state space for quantum key distribution (QKD) can decrease its fidelity requirements while also increasing its bandwidth. A significant obstacle for QKD with qu $d$ its ( $d\geq 3$ ) has been an efficient and practical quantum state sorter for photons whose complex fields are modulated in both amplitude and phase. We propose such a sorter based on a multiplexed thick hologram, constructed e.g. from photo-thermal refractive (PTR) glass. We validate this approach using coupled-mode theory with parameters consistent with PTR glass to simulate a holographic sorter. The model assumes a three-dimensional state space spanned by three tilted planewaves. The utility of such a sorter for broader quantum information processing applications can be substantial.An increase in the dimension of state space for quantum key distribution (QKD) can decrease its fidelity requirements while also increasing its bandwidth.
