Large-momentum-transfer atom interferometers that employ elastic Bragg scattering from light waves are among the most precise quantum sensors available. To increase their accuracy from the mrad to the µrad regime, it is necessary to understand the rich phenomenology of Bragg interferometers, which can be quite different from that of a standard two-mode interferometer. We develop an analytic model for the interferometer signal
and demonstrate its accuracy using extensive numerical simulations. Our analytic treatment enables the determination of the atomic projection noise limit of an LMT Bragg interferometer and provides the means to saturate this limit. It allows suppression of systematic phase errors by two orders of magnitude down to a few µrad using appropriate pulse parameters.
