Atom Interferometry with Transverse Optical Modes
Ryan Husband, Ryan J. Thomas, Yosri Ben-Aïcha +10
We experimentally demonstrate atom interferometry using the transverse phase profile of an optical mode. As proof-of-principle, we use the helical phase windings of Hypergeometric…
A quantum sensor: simultaneous precision gravimetry and magnetic gradiometry with a Bose-Einstein condensate
Kyle S. Hardman, Patrick J. Everitt, Gordon D. McDonald +7
A Bose-Einstein condensate is used as an atomic source for a high precision sensor. A atom F=1 spinor condensate of Rb is released into free fall for up to $7…
The Role of Source Coherence in Atom Interferometery
Kyle S. Hardman, Carlos C. N. Kuhn, Gordon D. McDonald +4
The role of source cloud spatial coherence in a Mach-Zehnder type atom interferometer is experimentally investigated. The visibility and contrast of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC…
11 W narrow linewidth laser source at 780nm for laser cooling and manipulation of Rubidium
S. S. Sané, S. Bennetts, J. E. Debs +5
We present a narrow linewidth continuous laser source with over 11 Watts of output power at 780nm, based on single-pass frequency doubling of an amplified 1560nm fibre laser with 3…
Coherent 455nm beam production in cesium vapor
J. T. Schultz, S. Abend, D. Döring +5
We observe coherent, continuous wave, 455nm blue beam production via frequency up-conversion in cesium vapor. Two infrared lasers induce strong double-excitation in a heated cesium…
Measurement of inelastic losses in a sample of ultracold Rb-85
P. A. Altin, N. P. Robins, R. Poldy +4
We report on the observation and characterisation of an inelastic loss feature in collisions between ultracold Rb-85 |F=2, m_F=-2> atoms at a magnetic field of 220 G. Our apparatus…
