It will explore the use of quantum accelerometers in geodesy missions to improve the accuracy of gravity field measurements. Can atom interferometry be used to navigate vehicles with the utmost ...

But if you want the ultimate in accuracy, you’ll want a quantum atomic interferometer ... different approach to this type of sensing; namely the atom interferometer. Back in 1924 French ...

Below is an example of one of our “split-wire” atom chips, which enables trapping of atoms in an H-trap such that the atoms sit in a cigar-shaped trap arbitrarily close to the window. Neutral Atom ...

Prof. Irina Novikova: quantum optics, electromagnetically induced transparency, quantum sensing. Prof. Eugeniy Mikhailov: quantum optics, squeezed light, quantum ...

Quantum sensing is an emerging field that exploits the unique properties of quantum systems ... geophysical surveys, and quantum computing. Atomic interferometers use the wave-particle duality of ...

"Accurate navigation becomes a challenge in real-world scenarios ... said Peter Schwindt, a quantum sensing scientist at Sandia. The team's grand plan—to turn atom interferometers into a compact ...

After ultracold atoms are maneuvered into superpositions -- each one located in two places simultaneously -- they are released to allow interference of each atom's two "selves." They are then ...

Prof. Seth Aubin -- experiment Quantum gases, laser cooling & trapping, atom chips, atom interferometry, parity violation. Prof. Todd Averett -- experiment Nuclear physics, polarized nuclear targets.

For experiments that require ultra-precise measurements and control over atoms—think two-photon atomic clocks, cold-atom interferometer ... quantum experiments, atomic timekeeping and the ...
