An actively compensated 8 nT-level magnetic shielding system for 10-m atom interferometer.

We design and develop a high-performance magnetic shielding system for a long baseline fountain-type atom interferometer. The shielding system is achieved by a combination of passive shielding using permalloy and active compensation with coils. An 11.

Laser frequency shift up to 5 GHz with a high-efficiency 12-pass 350-MHz acousto-optic modulator.

We demonstrate a novel laser frequency shift scheme using a 12-pass 350-MHz acousto-optic modulator (AOM). This AOM system shows better performance compared to ordinary acousto-optic modulation schemes. The frequency of the incident laser beam is shifted by 4.
