    Diffraction of atoms from optical potentials
    (1994) Pfau, Tilman; Schnetz, Andreas; Adams, Charles S.; Kurtsiefer, Christian; Sigel, Martin; Mlynek, Jürgen
    In the first part of this article we attempt to provide a very brief introduction to atom optics. In the second part we report on a recent experiment in our group on an atom-optical element that may be useful in atom interferometers and atom cavities: the demonstration of a new beam splitter based on the diffraction of atomic matter waves from a "magneto-optical grating".
