Degenerate optical resonator for the enhancement of large laser beams
Nicolas Mielec, Ranjita Sapam, Constance Poulain +5
Enhancement cavities where a beam of large size (several millimeters) can resonate have several applications, in particular in atomic physics. However, reaching large beam waists i…
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…
Improving the phase response of an atom interferometer by means of temporal pulse shaping
Bess Fang, Nicolas Mielec, Denis Savoie +3
We study theoretically and experimentally the influence of temporally shaping the light pulses in an atom interferometer, with a focus on the phase response of the interferometer.…
Studies of general relativity with quantum sensors
G. Lefevre, G. Condon, I. Riou +15
We present two projects aiming to probe key aspects of the theory of General Relativity with high-precision quantum sensors. These projects use cold-atom interferometry with the ai…
