State-selective atomic reflection from a standing wave

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

When low-velocity three-level atoms are incident at a glancing angle to a nearly-resonant standing wave light field, the centre of mass motion is affected by light-pressure forces which depend on the internal state of the atoms.
