A theory of matter wave interference is developed in which resonant, standing wave optical fields interact with an ensemble of two-level atoms. If effects related to the recoil the atoms undergo on absorbing or emitting radiation are neglected, the total atomic density is spatially uniform. However, when recoil effects are included, spatial modulation of the atomic density can occur for times t...

In a plasma source development of a hydrogen pair-ion plasma consisting of only hydrogen atomic ions, H and H−, efficient production of the atomic ions is required. Hydrogen positive ions produced in a PIG discharge are supplied to a catalyst. The ions are converted to the atomic ions on the catalyst surface, and an ionic plasma with very low electron density is generated.

adsorption of no2 molecule on pristine and n-doped tio2 anatase nanoparticles have been studied using the density functional theory (dft) technique. the structural properties (such as bond lengths and bond angles) and the electronic properties (such as density of states, band structures and atomic partial charges) have been computed for considered nanoparticles. the results show that, the adsor...

For interaction of light with condensed-matter systems, we show with simulations that ultrafast electron and X-ray diffraction can provide a time-dependent record of charge-density maps with sub-cycle and atomic-scale resolutions. Using graphene as an example material, we predict that diffraction can reveal localised atomic-scale origins of optical and electronic phenomena. In particular, we po...

In this paper, we study the dynamics of the atomic inversion, scaled atomic Wehrl entropy and marginal atomic Q-function for a single two-level atom interacting with SU(1,1) quantum system. We obtain the wave function and system density matrix using specific initial conditions. We examine the effects of different parameters on the scaled atomic Wehrl entropy, atomic Q-function and their margina...

We investigate the role of non-uniform spatial density profiles of trapped atomic Bose-Einstein condensates in the propagation of Raman-matched laser pulses under conditions for electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). We find that the sharp edged axial density profile of an interacting condensate (due to a balance between external trap and repulsive atomic interaction) is advantageous f...
