Dressing up for quantum technology

We will review the development of atomic dressing for the control of
cold atoms. Dressing with radio-frequency and microwave radiation
opens new atom trap designs because of the flexibility inherent in the vector
coupling of a magnetic dipole moment to EM fields which can be varied in
time, frequency, orientation and space. This may in turn result in quantum
technology applications to sensing, metrology and interferometry.
This talk will introduce the concept of the dressed atom, and present both
old and new designs of ring traps [1,2] and race tracks [3] with potential
to make new atomic gyroscopes.
