Integrated Atom Optics on a Bose-Einstein-Chip — •Claus Zimmermann — Physikalisches Institut, Universität Tübingen

Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in miniaturized magnetic traps offer interesting perspectives for integrated matter wave optics on a micro chip. In recent experiments the basic properties of such Bose-Einstein chips have been investigated including effects caused by the interaction of the atoms with chip surface. Now, first matter wave interferences have been observed on a chip. This opens the door for the construction of on chip atom interferometers for sensitive detection of forces and accelerations. For the future, superconducting micro traps may allow for tailoring novel quantum systems with condensates coupled to Cooper pair wave functions.
