Suspension of atoms and gravimetry using a pulsed standing wave
K. J. Hughes, J. H. T. Burke, C. A. Sackett
Atoms from an otherwise unconfined 87Rb condensate are shown to be suspended against gravity using repeated reflections from a pulsed optical standing wave. Reflection efficiency w…
Confinement effects in a guided-wave interferometer with millimeter-scale arm separation
J. H. T. Burke, B. Deissler, K. J. Hughes +1
Guided-wave atom interferometers measure interference effects using atoms held in a confining potential. In one common implementation, the confinement is primarily two-dimensional,…
Measurement of the ac Stark shift with a guided matter-wave interferometer
B. Deissler, K. J. Hughes, J. H. T. Burke +1
We demonstrate the effectiveness of a guided-wave Bose-Einstein condensate interferometer for practical measurements. Taking advantage of the large arm separations obtainable in ou…
Precise manipulation of a Bose-Einstein condensate using Bragg interactions
K. J. Hughes, B. Deissler, J. H. T. Burke +1
The use of off-resonant standing light waves to manipulate ultracold atoms is investigated. Previous work has illustrated that optical pulses can provide efficient beam-splitting a…
