Composite-light-pulse technique for high-precision atom interferometry

P Berg, S Abend, G Tackmann, C Schubert, E Giese… - Physical review …, 2015 - APS
We realize beam splitters and mirrors for atom waves by employing a sequence of light
pulses rather than individual ones. In this way we can tailor atom interferometers with …

Circumventing Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in atom interferometry tests of the equivalence principle

A Roura - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
Atom interferometry tests of universality of free fall based on the differential measurement of
two different atomic species provide a useful complement to those based on macroscopic …

Double bragg interferometry

H Ahlers, H Müntinga, A Wenzlawski, M Krutzik… - Physical review …, 2016 - APS
We employ light-induced double Bragg diffraction of delta-kick collimated Bose-Einstein
condensates to create three symmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers. They rely on (i) first …

Joint mass-and-energy test of the equivalence principle at the level using atoms with specified mass and internal energy

L Zhou, C He, ST Yan, X Chen, DF Gao, WT Duan… - Physical Review A, 2021 - APS
We use rubidium atoms with specified mass and internal energy to carry out a joint mass-
energy test of the equivalence principle (EP). We improve the four-wave double-diffraction …
