Non-linear Bragg trap interferometer

Abstract

We propose a scheme for trapped atom interferometry using an interacting Bose-Einstein condensate. The condensate is controlled and spatially split in two confined external momentum modes through a series Bragg pulses. The proposed scheme (i) allows the generation of large entanglement in a trapped-interferometer configuration via one-axis twisting dynamic induced by interatomic interaction, and (ii) avoids the suppression of interactions during the interferometer sequence by a careful manipulation of the state before and after phase encoding. The interferometer can be used for the measurement of gravity with a sensitivity beyond the standard quantum limit.
