Compact atom interferometry inertial navigation sensors with tailored diffractive optics

Various optical systems for use in a light pulse atomic interferometer (LPAI)-based one-, two-, or three-axis accelerometer or gyroscope are disclosed. As an LPAI accelerometer or gyroscope may employ many different laser beams to implement the LPAI functionality, ways of combining these different laser beams to thereby simplify the optical systems are desired. The cooling laser beam portion of the optical system may be simplified using one or more reflective grating chips. The Raman laser beam optics may be simplified using combiners and separators. For LPAI systems sensing along three axes, various optical switching schemes may be employed, including ones that generate variable data-rates with a primary sensing axis having a higher data-rate than the secondary sensing axes. Further, by combining various laser beams in a time-multiplexed manner, the number of optical fiber tethers to a sensor head may be reduced.
