Trapping, manipulating and probing ultracold atoms: a quantum technologies tutorial
Louise Wolswijk, Luca Cavicchioli, Giuseppe Vinelli +12
Engineered ultracold atomic systems are a valuable platform for fundamental quantum mechanics studies and the development of quantum technologies. At near zero absolute temperature…
Mach-Zehnder atom interferometry with non-interacting trapped Bose Einstein condensates
Tommaso Petrucciani, Andrea Santoni, Chiara Mazzinghi +7
The coherent manipulation of a quantum wave is at the core of quantum sensing. For instance, atom interferometers require linear splitting and recombination processes to map the ac…
Long-wavelength optical lattices from optical beatnotes: theory and applications
Tommaso Petrucciani, Andrea Santoni, Chiara Mazzinghi +4
We present a theoretical analysis of Beat-Note Superlattices (BNSLs), a recently demonstrated technique for generating periodic trapping potentials for ultracold atomic clouds, wit…
Joint estimation of phase and uncorrelated dephasing in a differential quantum interferometer
Luca Pezzè, Andrea Santoni, Chiara Mazzinghi +2
Precise measurements in optical and atomic systems often rely on differential interferometry. This method allows to handle large and correlated phase noise contributions -- such as…
