Abstract

See full text

A system and method for inertial sensing using large momentum transfer atom interferometry. Certain examples include applying a π/2-π-π/2 sequence to a cloud of atoms that produces 2k momentum splitting, and applying at least one augmentation pulse to the cloud of atoms to increase the momentum splitting. For instance, examples include atom optics that are based on stimulated Raman transitions and adiabatic rapid passage that produce momentum splittings of at least 30 photon recoil momenta in a Mach-Zhender interferometer. In some examples, substantial recapture of the atoms allows for higher data rates.
