Abstract

This is a review about the progress of an atom interferometer in a confined trap as a gyroscope at Korea National University of Education. Our atom interferometer is based on the wave nature of matter. We cooled down neutral 87Rb gas below the critical temperature where the atomic ensemble follows Bose–Einstein distribution instead of Boltzman one, called BEC (Bose Einstein Condensation). At this temperature, atoms behave like wave and the amplitude of it is high enough to detect since most atoms occupy the same quantum state and phase. We produce BEC in a magnetic harmonic trap which is generated by an atom chip and bias magnetic field. We also develop the process of splitting and recombining BEC in a circular waveguide. By combining splitting and recombination, we suggested a way to build matter wave Sagnac interferometer in a spatially confined trap. Our atomic Sagnac interferometer is aimed at miniaturizing and fast generating of BEC systems. In this article we introduce an experimental process and how to adopt an optimal control algorithm to build a Sagnac interferometer for an atomic matter wave gyroscope.
