Atom Interferometry with Top-Hat Laser Beams
N. Mielec, M. Altorio, R. Sapam +5
The uniformity of the intensity and phase of laser beams is crucial to high-performance atom interferometers. Inhomogeneities in the laser intensity profile cause contrast reductio…
A compact micro-wave synthesizer for transportable cold-atom interferometers
Jean Lautier, Michel Lours, Arnaud Landragin
We present the realization of a compact micro-wave frequency synthesizer for an atom interferometer based on stimulated Raman transitions, applied to transportable inertial sensing…
STE-QUEST - Test of the Universality of Free Fall Using Cold Atom Interferometry
D. Aguilera, H. Ahlers, B. Battelier +63
The theory of general relativity describes macroscopic phenomena driven by the influence of gravity while quantum mechanics brilliantly accounts for microscopic effects. Despite th…
Low noise amplication of an optically carried microwave signal: application to atom interferometry
Thomas Lévèque, Alexandre Gauguet, Walid Chaibi +1
In this paper, we report a new scheme to amplify a microwave signal carried on a laser light at =852nm. The amplification is done via a semiconductor tapered amplifier and this…
Wide bandwidth phase-locked diode laser with an intra-cavity electro-optic modulator
J. Le Gouët, J. Kim, C. Bourassin-Bouchet +3
Two extended cavity laser diodes are phase-locked, thanks to an intra-cavity electro-optical modulator. The phase-locked loop bandwidth is on the order of 10 MHz, which is about tw…
Operating an atom interferometer beyond its linear range
Sébastien Merlet, J. Le Gouët, Quentin Bodart +4
In this paper, we show that an atom interferometer inertial sensor, when associated to the auxiliary measurement of external vibrations, can be operated beyond its linear range and…
