Physics colloquium – “Programmable Atom Interferometry in a Multidimensional Optical Lattice”
Center for Technology and Learning Media (CTLM) 1650 Arapahoe St., Golden, CO, United StatesMurray Holland CU Boulder Abstract: The creation of a matter-wave interferometer can be achieved by loading Bose-Einstein condensed atoms into a crystal of light formed by interfering laser beams.It has recently been realized that by translating this optical lattice in a specific way, the traditional steps of interferometry can all be implemented, i.e., splitting, propagating, […]
