Controlling the dynamical scale factor in a trapped atom Sagnac interferometer (2020)
Journal Article
Zhou, Y., Lesanovsky, I., Fernholz, T., & Li, W. (2020). Controlling the dynamical scale factor in a trapped atom Sagnac interferometer. Physical Review A, 101(1), Article 012517. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.101.012517

Sagnac interferometers with massive particles promise unique advantages in achieving high-precision measurements of rotation rates over their optical counterparts. Recent proposals and experiments are exploring nonballistic Sagnac interferometers whe... Read More about Controlling the dynamical scale factor in a trapped atom Sagnac interferometer.

Towards rotation sensing with a single atomic clock (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fernholz, T., Stevenson, R., Hush, M. R., Lesanovsky, I., Bishop, T., Gentile, F., …von Klitzing, W. (2016). Towards rotation sensing with a single atomic clock. Proceedings of SPIE, 9900(990007), https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2229878

We discuss a scheme to implement a gyroscopic atom sensor with magnetically trapped ultra-cold atoms. Unlike standard light or matter wave Sagnac interferometers no free wave propagation is used. Interferometer operation is controlled only with stati... Read More about Towards rotation sensing with a single atomic clock.

Sagnac Interferometry with a Single Atomic Clock (2015)
