摘要: A trapped-atom interferometer was demonstrated using gaseous Bose-Einstein condensates coherently split by deforming an optical single-well potential into a double-well potential. The relative phase between the two determined from spatial of matter wave interference pattern formed upon releasing separated wells. Coherent evolution observed for held $13\text{ }\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{m}$ up to 5 ms and controlled applying ac Stark shift potentials either condensates.
