Congratulations to Dr. Christian Knobloch
My dear friend and colleague Christian Knobloch successfully defended his thesis on “Coherent matter-wave manipulation techniques” today! Hurra!
Finding the ultimate grating for atomic matter-waves
What happens when you accelerate hydrogen atoms to a breathtaking velocity of 120’000 m/s and shoot them onto the thinnest membrane there is? You get a absolutely fascinating diffraction pattern! In our new publication we theoretically describe what to expect … Continue reading
Publication in Physical Review Letters
Our manuscript on preparing internally cold beams containing only a single molecular structure was published in Physical Review Letters.

Spring meeting of the DPG in Erlangen
I just spend a very nice and inspriring week at the spring meeting of the German Physical Society in Erlangen, Germany. It’s great to come together with some many people, discuss in a very informal setting and make new connections … Continue reading
Visit at Center for Free-Electron Laser Science in Hamburg
Last week I spend two very exciting days in the group of Jochen Küpper at the Center for Free-Electron Laser Science, which is at the Deutsches Elektronen Synchrotron in Hamburg, Germany. It’s amazing to take a look at research done … Continue reading
Matter-waves III
In this post we take a look at THE prerequisite for matter-wave optics: how to make a particle behave like a wave.
