    Abstract:

    Large momentum transfer (LMT) beamsplitting in atom interferometry is reviewed, focusing on the use of Bloch Oscillations to achieve high momentum separation without loss of visibility. Phase sensitivity with a fringe visibility of 7% is observed in a horizontally guided, acceleration-sensitive atom interferometer with a momentum separation of 80ℏk between its arms. In addition, a 510ℏk beamsplitter is demonstrated.
