N2 - Matter-wave sensors are considered to be one of the most promising fields for progress in metrology and fundamental tests. We report on the development of a miniaturized and robust experiment within the QUANTUS collaboration using ultra cold atoms in a free fall environment as a test-bed for matter-wave interferometry on long timescales. Over 200 experiments in microgravity have been performed so far at the ZARM drop tower in Bremen and a BEC was observed after expansion times of up to 1s. The combination of long expansion times and low density samples is beneficial for the application in interferometry. We present the recently implemented interferometer in our chip-based 87 Rb BEC experiment including on-chip state preparation. Bragg diffraction is used for coherent manipulation, realizing different interferometer schemes. First results on ground and in microgravity are shown.
