A Race Track Trapped-Ion Quantum Processor
S. A. Moses, C. H. Baldwin, M. S. Allman +93
We describe and benchmark a new quantum charge-coupled device (QCCD) trapped-ion quantum computer based on a linear trap with periodic boundary conditions, which resembles a race t…
Transport of multispecies ion crystals through a junction in an RF Paul trap
William Cody Burton, Brian Estey, Ian M. Hoffman +3
We report on the first demonstration of transport of a multispecies ion crystal through a junction in an RF Paul trap. The trap is a two-dimensional surface-electrode trap with an…
Guided matter wave inertial sensing in a miniature physics package
Karl Nelson, Chad Fertig, Paul Hamilton +4
We describe an ultra-compact ( cm physics package) inertial sensor based on atomic matter waves that are guided within an optical lattice during almost the entire inte…
Measurement of the fine-structure constant as a test of the Standard Model
Richard H. Parker, Chenghui Yu, Weicheng Zhong +2
Measurements of the fine-structure constant alpha require methods from across subfields and are thus powerful tests of the consistency of theory and experiment in physics. Using th…
Recoil-sensitive lithium interferometer without a subrecoil sample
Kayleigh Cassella, Eric Copenhaver, Brian Estey +3
We report simultaneous conjugate Ramsey-Bordé interferometers with a sample of low-mass (lithium-7) atoms at 50 times the recoil temperature. We optically pump the atoms to a magne…
Controlling the Multiport Nature of Bragg Diffraction in Atom Interferometry
Richard H Parker, Chenghui Yu, Brian Estey +3
Bragg diffraction has been used in atom interferometers because it allows signal enhancement through multiphoton momentum transfer and suppression of systematics by not changing th…
High-resolution atom interferometers with suppressed diffraction phases
Brian Estey, Chenghui Yu, Holger Müller +2
We experimentally and theoretically study the diffraction phase of large-momentum transfer beam splitters in atom interferometers based on Bragg diffraction. We null the diffractio…
Atom interferometry in an optical cavity
Paul Hamilton, Matt Jaffe, Justin M. Brown +3
We propose and demonstrate a new scheme for atom interferometry, using light pulses inside an optical cavity as matter wave beamsplitters. The cavity provides power enhancement, sp…
Influence of the Coriolis force in atom interferometry
Shau-Yu Lan, Pei-Chen Kuan, Brian Estey +2
In a light-pulse atom interferometer, we use a tip-tilt mirror to remove the influence of the Coriolis force from Earth's rotation and to characterize configuration space wave pack…
Force-Free Gravitational Redshift: Proposed Gravitational Aharonov-Bohm experiment
Michael A. Hohensee, Brian Estey, Paul Hamilton +2
We propose a feasible laboratory interferometry experiment with matter waves in a gravitational potential caused by a pair of artificial field-generating masses. It will demonstrat…
Gravitational Redshift, Equivalence Principle, and Matter Waves
Michael A. Hohensee, Brian Estey, Francisco Monsalve +7
We review matter wave and clock comparison tests of the gravitational redshift. To elucidate their relationship to tests of the universality of free fall (UFF), we define scenarios…
Sources and technology for an atomic gravitational wave interferometric sensor
Michael Hohensee, Shau-Yu Lan, Rachel Houtz +5
We study the use of atom interferometers as detectors for gravitational waves in the mHz - Hz frequency band, which is complementary to planned optical interferometers, such as las…
