Atom reflection echoes and surface matter waves in atom meta-optics

Evanescent matter-waves produced by an atom wave packet incident onto a repulsive barrier edge can be back-refracted and reconstructed by the application of negative-index "comoving" potential pulses. One shows that those collapses and revivals of evanescent matter waves give rise to surface matter waves and should be observable via atom reflection echoes issued from the barrier interface. This property, together with the property of inducing negative refraction, makes such potentials the matter-wave counterpart of negative-index materials in light optics.

Total transparency in quantum tunneling of counterpropagating waves

G. A. Muradyan, H. R. Hakobyan, A. Zh. Muradyan

The problem of quantum tunneling is considered for matter waves which are impinging on the potential barrier from both sides. Possibility of the total transmission of one of incident waves at the simultaneous total reflection of the other one is studied. The analysis is carried out for two essentially different, rectangular and bell-shaped, forms of the potential barrier.

Abstract\nnumbers: 03.75.-b Matter Waves 03.75.Be Atom and Neutron Optics 37.10.Gh Atom Traps and Guides 42.25.-p Wave Optics ABSTRACT Semi-evanescent and evanescent matter-waves produced by an atom wave packet impinging a repulsive barrier can be back-refracted and reconstructed by the application of negative-index " comoving " potential pulses. One shows that those collapses and revivals generate a matter wave confined on both sides of the barrier border (" surface matter wave ") and should be observable via the retardation of atom reflection from the barrier interface. This property, joined to the possibility recently demonstrated of inducing negative refraction of atom waves, makes such potentials a matter-wave counterpart of negative-index materials or " meta materials " well-known in light optics.
