A Spin-Based Pathway to Testing the Quantum Nature of Gravity

Sougato Bose, Anupam Mazumdar, Roger Penrose +52

A key open problem in physics is the correct way to combine gravity (described by general relativity) with everything else (described by quantum mechanics). This problem suggests t…

Neutralization of Levitated Charged Nanodiamond: Towards matter-wave interferometry with massive objects

Sela Liran, Or Dobkowski, Rafael Benjaminov +6

Quantum mechanics (QM) and General relativity (GR), also known as the theory of gravity, are the two pillars of modern physics. A matter-wave interferometer with a massive particle…

In-vacuum microwave resonator for a compact cold atom frequency standard

M. Givon, L. Habib, A. Waxman +9

A physics package for a compact cold atomic clock is hereby presented. The uniqueness of this package is its small dimensions that enable, for the first time, implementation of a p…

Multi-pass guided atomic Sagnac interferometer for high-performance rotation sensing

Samuel Moukouri, Yonathan Japha, Mark Keil +4

Matter-wave interferometry with atoms propagating in a guiding potential is expected to provide compact, scalable and precise inertial sensing. However, a rotation sensing device b…

Stern-Gerlach Interferometry with the Atom Chip

Mark Keil, Shimon Machluf, Yair Margalit +12

In this invited review in honor of 100 years since the Stern-Gerlach (SG) experiments, we describe a decade of SG interferometry on the atom chip. The SG effect has been a paradigm…

Survival of the fittest in the coherent evolution of quantum ensembles

G. Liu, O. Be'er, Y. Margalit +4

We report two novel effects in an inhomogeneous ensemble of two-level systems driven by an external field. First, we observe a rigidity of the oscillation frequency: the dominant R…

Fifteen Years of Cold Matter on the Atom Chip: Promise, Realizations, and Prospects

Mark Keil, Omer Amit, Shuyu Zhou +3

Here we review the field of atom chips in the context of Bose-Einstein Condensates (BEC) as well as cold matter in general. Twenty years after the first realization of the BEC and…

Robust spatial coherence 5m from a room-temperature atom chip

Shuyu Zhou, David Groswasser, Mark Keil +2

We study spatial coherence near a classical environment by loading a Bose-Einstein condensate into a magnetic lattice potential and observing diffraction. Even very close to a surf…

Long spatial coherence times a few micro-meters from a room temperature surface

Shuyu Zhou, David Groswasser, Mark Keil +2

The search for quantum coherence based on isolated atoms integrated with a room temperature solid state device (so-called atomchip [1-3]) has been intensifying in the last decade,…
