From: Distributed quasi-Bragg beam splitter in crossed atomic waveguides
Relative population of the different classes of non-transmitted atoms (inset) as a function of the lattice height, revealing the complexity and different mechanisms governing the atom dynamics in the splitter. Measurements are shown for two different regimes: (a) v = 2.7v R and (b) v = 3.7v R . Solid grey areas show the maximum quantum reflection probability by a single barrier calculated using the analytical expression in ref. 17. Solid lines are guides to the eyes. Please refer to the insets of Fig. 3 for the definition of the waveguides’ orientation.
