  2. Scanning helium microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_helium_microscopy

    Geometry of a scanning helium microscope in its zone plate configuration showing the variables used in this article. Image taken from [27] (uploaded by the author). The zone plate microscope uses a zone plate (that acts roughly like as a classical lens) instead of a pinhole to focus the atom beam into a small focal spot. This means that the ...

  3. Quantum microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_microscopy

    Quantum microscopy allows microscopic properties of matter and quantum particles to be measured and imaged. Various types of microscopy use quantum principles. The first microscope to do so was the scanning tunneling microscope, which paved the way for development of the photoionization microscope and the quantum entanglement microscope.

  4. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-resolution...

    While this term is often also used to refer to high resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy, mostly in high angle annular dark field mode, this article describes mainly the imaging of an object by recording the two-dimensional spatial wave amplitude distribution in the image plane, similar to a "classic" light microscope.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic,_molecular,_and...

    In a neutral atom, the system will emit a photon of the difference in energy. However, if the lower state is in an inner shell, a phenomenon known as the Auger effect may take place where the energy is transferred to another bound electrons causing it to go into the continuum. This allows one to multiply ionize an atom with a single photon.

  6. Jaynes–Cummings model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaynes–Cummings_model

    With the advent of one-atom masers it was possible to study the interaction of a single atom (usually a Rydberg atom) with a single resonant mode of the electromagnetic field in a cavity from an experimental point of view, [11] [12] and study different aspects of the Jaynes–Cummings model.

  7. Atom localization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_localization

    Atom localization deals with estimating the position of an atom using techniques of quantum optics with increasing precision. This field finds its origins in the thought experiment by Werner Heisenberg called Heisenberg's microscope, [1] which is commonly used as an illustration of Heisenberg's Uncertainty relation in quantum mechanics textbooks. [2]

  9. Atom optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_optics

    Interference of atom matter waves was first observed by Esterman and Stern in 1930, when a Na beam was diffracted off a surface of NaCl. [7] The short de Broglie wavelength of atoms prevented progress for many years until two technological breakthroughs revived interest: microlithography allowing precise small devices and laser cooling allowing atoms to be slowed, increasing their de Broglie ...
