Optimizing beam-splitter pulses for atom interferometry: A geometric approach

N Dedes, J Saywell, M Carey, I Kuprov, T Freegarde - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
We present a methodology for the design of optimal Raman beam-splitter pulses suitable for
cold atom inertial sensors. The methodology, based on time-dependent perturbation theory …

Accelerated Newton-Raphson GRAPE methods for optimal control

DL Goodwin, MS Vinding - Physical Review Research, 2023 - APS
A Hessian-based state-to-state optimal control method in Liouville space is presented to
mitigate previously undesirable polynomial scaling of Hessian computation time. This …

Efficient state-symmetric beamsplitters and mirrors for atom interferometers using optimized pulses

J Saywell, M Carey, N Dedes, I Kuprov… - Journal of Physics B …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Atom interferometers that employ atoms in superpositions of different electronic states are
sensitive to any noise that affects these superposed states differently. Resilience to such …

Error and performance analysis of cold-atom inertial sensors for navigation

N Dedes - 2024 - eprints.soton.ac.uk
Cold-atom inertial (CAI) sensors based on light-pulse atom interferometry show much
promise for the next generation of navigation systems thanks to their low scale-factor and …
