Quantum sensing of radiofrequency fields using cold Rydberg atoms in a super-molasses trap

Romain Granier, Anthony El Bekai, Miguel Angel Cifuentes Marín +12

We demonstrate the quantum sensing of radiofrequency fields based on cold Rydberg atoms in a super-molasses trap, without the need for magnetic coils. Our approach combines the met…

Quantum sensing of acceleration and rotation by interfering magnetically-launched atoms

Clément Salducci, Yannick Bidel, Malo Cadoret +6

Accurate measurement of inertial quantities is essential in geophysics, geodesy, fundamental physics and navigation. For instance, inertial navigation systems require stable inerti…

Metrology of microwave fields based on trap-loss spectroscopy with cold Rydberg atoms

Romain Duverger, Alexis Bonnin, Romain Granier +7

We demonstrate a new approach for the metrology of microwave fields based on the trap-loss-spectroscopy of cold Rydberg atoms in a magneto-optical trap. Compared to state-of-the-ar…

Airborne absolute gravimetry with a quantum sensor, comparison with classical technologies

Yannick Bidel, Nassim Zahzam, Alexandre Bresson +14

We report an airborne gravity survey with an absolute gravimeter based on atom interferometry and two relative gravimeters: a classical LaCoste\&Romberg (L\&R) and a novel iMAR str…

Zero-velocity atom interferometry using a retroreflected frequency chirped laser

Isadora Perrin, Jeanne Bernard, Yannick Bidel +4

Atom interferometry using stimulated Raman transitions in a retroreflected configuration is the first choice in high precision measurements because it provides low phase noise, hig…
