Diffraction of multi-level atoms by an evanescent wave reflective diffraction grating is modeled by numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. We are able to explain the diffraction observed in experiments with metastable Neon. This is not possible using a two-level atom model. The multi-level model predicts sensitive dependence of diffraction on the laser polarization. For pu...

متن کاملEvanescent Wave Illumination
When an electromagnetic wave (light) in a dielectric medium of index n1 is incident upon an interface of a different dielectric material of a lower optical density, n2 at an angle θ1 greater than the critical angle, θc = sin−1(n2/n1), total internal reflection (TIR) occurs. Although all of the incident energy is reflected, an electromagnetic field with exponentially decreasing intensity propaga...
متن کاملHeating and phase-space decompression of evanescent-wave cooled atoms by multiple photon reabsorption.
We show that multiple reabsorption of resonance-frequency photons in a cloud of evanescent-wave cooled atoms can have a significant influence on the cooling efficiency and maximum value of the atomic phase-space density.
