2. Double-slit experiment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment

   A diagram of Wheeler's delayed choice experiment, showing the principle of determining the path of the photon after it passes through the slit. Wheeler's delayed-choice experiments demonstrate that extracting "which path" information after a particle passes through the slits can seem to retroactively alter its previous behavior at the slits.

3. Atom laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_laser

   They produce a well controlled continuous beam spanning up to 100 ms, whereas their predecessor produced only short pulses of atoms. However, this does not constitute a continuous atom laser since the replenishing of the depleted BEC lasts approximately 100 times longer than the duration of the emission itself (i.e. the duty cycle is 1/100).

4. 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 ...

5. Laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser

   The beam of a single transverse mode (gaussian beam) laser eventually diverges at an angle that varies inversely with the beam diameter, as required by diffraction theory. Thus, the "pencil beam" directly generated by a common helium–neon laser would spread out to a size of perhaps 500 kilometers when shone on the Moon (from the distance of ...

6. Atomic beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_beam

   Atomic beam is special case of particle beam; it is the collimated flux (beam) of neutral atoms. The imaging systems using the slow atomic beams can use the Fresnel zone plate (Fresnel diffraction lens) of a Fresnel diffraction mirror as focusing element. The imaging system with atomic beam could provide the sub-micrometre resolution.

7. Spontaneous emission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_emission

   If emission leaves a system in an excited state, additional transitions can occur, leading to atomic radiative cascade. For example, if calcium atoms a low pressure atomic beam are excited by ultraviolet light from their in the 4 1 S 0 ground state to the 6 1 P 1 state, they can decay in three steps, first to 6 1 S 0 then to 4 1 P 1 and finally ...

9. Hollow-cathode lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow-cathode_lamp

   Basic diagram of a hollow-cathode lamp Hollow-cathode lamps from an atomic absorption spectrometer. A hollow-cathode lamp (HCL) is type of cold cathode lamp used in physics and chemistry as a spectral line source (e.g. for atomic absorption spectrometers) and as a frequency tuner for light sources such as lasers.
