We analyze the phase resolution limit of a Mach-Zehnder atom interferometer whose input consists of degenerate quantum gases of either bosons or fermions. For degenerate gases, the number of atoms within one de Broglie wavelength is larger than unity, so that atom-atom interactions and quantum statistics are no longer negligible. We show that for equal atom numbers, the phase resolution achievable with fermions is noticeably better than for interacting bosons.
