Fresnel zone plates for reconfigurable atomic waveguides
A. M. Pike, A. Dorne, L. Pickering +7
Fresnel zone plates (FZPs), with patterns of m resolution, allow the formation of clean, diffraction-limited foci -- but have a static phase profile. Spatial light modulators…
Comparison of laser system designs for quantum technologies: BECCAL flight system vs. BECCAL ground test bed
Victoria A. Henderson, Jean-Pierre Marburger, André Wenzlawski +31
We present the design of laser systems for the Bose-Einstein Condensate and Cold Atom Laboratory (BECCAL) payload, enabling numerous quantum technological experiments onboard the I…
Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline Atom Interferometry: Workshop Summary
Sven Abend, Baptiste Allard, Iván Alonso +250
This document presents a summary of the 2023 Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline Atom Interferometry Workshop hosted by CERN. The workshop brought together experts from around the world…
Cold Atoms in Space: Community Workshop Summary and Proposed Road-Map
Ivan Alonso, Cristiano Alpigiani, Brett Altschul +246
We summarize the discussions at a virtual Community Workshop on Cold Atoms in Space concerning the status of cold atom technologies, the prospective scientific and societal opportu…
Space-borne quantum memories for global quantum communication
Mustafa Gündoğan, Jasminder S. Sidhu, Victoria Henderson +4
Global scale quantum communication links will form the backbone of the quantum internet. However, exponential loss in optical fibres precludes any realistic application beyond few…
Optical characterisation of micro-fabricated Fresnel zone plates for atomic waveguides
Victoria A. Henderson, Matthew Y. H. Johnson, Yogeshwar B. Kale +3
We optically assess Fresnel zone plates (FZPs) that are designed to guide cold atoms. Imaging of various ring patterns produced by the FZPs gives an average RMS error in the bright…
