We demonstrate a new laser cooling method suitable for a lithium atom interferometer. Although lithium is often used in ultra-cold atom experiments for its interesting physical properties and measurement feasibility, it is more difficult to laser cool lithium than other alkali atoms due to its unresolved hyperfine states, light mass (large recoil velocity) and high temperature from the oven. The laser cooling of atomic gases has revolutionized experimental atomic physics [1] and raised the prospect of a range of atomic quantum technologies [2,3]. However, traditional Doppler cooling [4,5] relies upon the velocity dependence of a single narrow radiative transition and spontaneous emission to reset the atomic state.

These MgO:PPLN based laser systems have been used in several applications including, a demonstration of a quantum superposition over 54 centimetres [3], a precision gravimeter [4], a dual-species atom interferometer for BECs [5], and a new type of sensor which simultaneously measures gravity and magnetic field gradients to a high precision [6]. Laser Cooling Technology Laser cooling techniques are used to achieve the required velocity (wavelength) control for the atom source. Laser cooling: Laser light is used to cool atomic vapors to temperatures of ~10-6 Kelvin.

In our experiment, we show that clear interference signals may be obtained without laser cooling. Measuring the fine-structure constant with atom interferometry constitutes a low-energy, tabletop search for physics beyond the Standard Model, like dark matter. These measurements require laser cooling to slow particles and permit the long observation times required for sufficient precision and full quantum control. Last, it enables one to generate flat-top laser beams [30], which are of interest for light pulse atom interferometry. Here, a DM is used to control the laser wavefront in an atom interferometer. We demonstrate its ability and effi-ciency to correct the wavefront aberrations in a proof-of-principle experiment realized with an atomic gravimeter.

With pulses of light, we drive each atom into a quantum superpositions of having been kicked with the momentum of photons and not having been kicked. Laser cooling can be used, for example, in an atom interferometer that works by dropping a cloud of ‘cooled’ atoms.
