Light-pulse atom interferometers are quantum sensors that enable a wide range of high-precision measurements such as the determination of inertial and electromagnetic forces or the fine-structure constant. Increased sensitivities can be achieved by implementing large momentum transfer (LMT) techniques. A well-known method to increase the momentum of the arms of an interferometer are sequential Bloch oscillations.
We present an accurate description for Bloch pulses based on Wannier-Stark states [Glück et al., Physics Reports 366, 6 (2002)] and the adiabatic theorem for non-hermitian Hamiltonians and verify our model by comparing to an exact numerical integration of the Schrödinger equation [Fitzek et al., Sci Rep 10, 22120 (2020)]. Based on this model, we characterize losses as well as phase uncertainties induced by lattice depth fluctuations in the context of LMT atom interferometry.
