Bragg gravity-gradiometer using the 1S0–3P1 intercombination transition of 88Sr
We present a gradiometer based on matter-wave interference of alkaline-earth-metal atoms, namely ^88 Sr. The coherent manipulation of the atomic external degrees of freedom is obtained by large-momentum-transfer Bragg diffraction, driven by laser fields detuned away from the narrow ^1 S _0 – ^3 P _1...
