This thesis demonstrates a full Mach-Zehnder interferometer with interacting Bose-Einstein condensates confined on an atom chip. This requires the development of atom-optics analogues to beam splitters, phase shifters and recombiners.Particle interactions in the Bose-Einstein condensate lead to a nonlinearity, absent in photon optics.
