Aspects théoriques et expérimentaux des interféromètres atomiques de Mach Zender à trois réseaux
Abstract
In this contribution, we present some recent theoretical results concerning the fringe contrast in Mach-Zehnder atom interferometers and the use of Bloch states to describe atomic diffraction. We also describe the observation of diffraction of lithium at thermal energy by a quasi-resonant laser standing wave.
