A Bright Solitonic Matter-Wave Interferometer

Gordon D. McDonald, Carlos C. N. Kuhn, Kyle S. Hardman +6

We present the first realisation of a solitonic atom interferometer. A Bose-Einstein condensate of atoms of rubidium-85 is loaded into a horizontal optical waveguide.…

A Bose-condensed, simultaneous dual species Mach-Zehnder atom interferometer

C. C. N. Kuhn, G. D. McDonald, K. S. Hardman +6

This paper presents the first realisation of a simultaneous Rb -Rb Mach-Zehnder atom interferometer with Bose-condensed atoms. A number of ambitious proposals for pre…

Optically guided linear Mach Zehnder atom interferometer

G. D. McDonald, H. Keal, P. A. Altin +7

We demonstrate a horizontal, linearly guided Mach Zehnder atom interferometer in an optical waveguide. Intended as a proof-of-principle experiment, the interferometer utilises a Bo…

Gradient echo memory in an ultra-high optical depth cold atomic ensemble

B. M. Sparkes, J. Bernu, M. Hosseini +6

Quantum memories are an integral component of quantum repeaters - devices that will allow the extension of quantum key distribution to communication ranges beyond that permissible…

Atom lasers: production, properties and prospects for precision inertial measurement

N. P. Robins, P. A. Altin, J. E. Debs +1

We review experimental progress on atom lasers out-coupled from Bose-Einstein condensates, and consider the properties of such beams in the context of precision inertial sensing. T…

Precision atomic gravimeter based on Bragg diffraction

P. A. Altin, M. T. Johnsson, V. Negnevitsky +10

We present a precision gravimeter based on coherent Bragg diffraction of freely falling cold atoms. Traditionally, atomic gravimeters have used stimulated Raman transitions to sepa…
