Funded Activity Summary

Integrated Atom Optics: Guiding Matter Waves with Magnetic Microstructures. The development of micron-scale waveguides that coherently transport, split and recombine atom de Broglie waves is important for atom optics and interferometry. Atom interferometers will be used for fundamental tests of quantum physics and as inertial sensors for the detection of gravitational anomalies. The expected outcomes include microfabrication of integrated atom devices that produce coherent matter waves via Bose-Einstein condensation and utilise them in a new generation of atom interferometers.
