Increased interference fringe visibility from the post fabrication heat treatment of a perfect crystal silicon neutron interferometer
Benjamin Heacock, Muhammad Arif, David G Cory +9
Construction of silicon neutron interferometers requires a perfect crystal silicon ingot (5 cm to 30 cm long) be machined such that Bragg diffracting "blades" protrude from a commo…

Generation of a lattice of spin-orbit beams via coherent averaging
D. Sarenac, D. G. Cory, J. Nsofini +6
We describe a highly robust method, applicable to both electromagnetic and matter-wave beams, that can produce a beam consisting of a lattice of orbital angular momentum (OAM) stat…

Noise Refocusing in a Five-blade Neutron Interferometer
J. Nsofini, D. Sarenac, K. Ghofrani +4
We provide a quantum information description of a proposed five-blade neutron interferometer geometry and show that it is robust against low frequency mechanical vibrations and dep…
