Near-field imaging of atom diffraction gratings: The atomic Talbot effect

Chapman, Michael S., Ekstrom, Christopher R., Hammond, Troy D., Schmiedmayer, Jörg, Tannian, Bridget E., Wehinger, Stefan, Pritchard, David E.·1995·Physical Review A

Abstract

We have demonstrated the Talbot effect, the self-imaging of a periodic structure, with atom waves. We have measured the successive recurrence of these self-images as a function of the distance from the imaged grating. This is a near-field interference effect, which has several possible applications that are discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
