Bose. This elegant technique, whereby atoms, molecules, and even microscopic beads of glass, are trapped in small regions of free space by beams of light and subsequently moved at will using other beams, provides a useful research tool for the study of individual atoms and clusters of atoms, for investigating the details of chemical reactions, and even for determining the physical properties of individual macromolecules such as synthetic polymers and DNA. Intended for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students who have some basic knowledge of optics and quantum mechanics, this text begins with a review of the relevant results of quantum mechanics, it then turns to the electromagnetic interactions involved in slowing and trapping atoms and ions, in both magnetic and optical traps. The concluding chapters discuss a broad range of applications, from atomic clocks and studies of collision processes to diffraction and interference of atomic b | 出版日期 | Textbook 1999 | 关键词 | CERN; Optics; Quantum mechanics; chemical reactions; cluster; collision; mechanics; molecule | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4612-1470-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-0-387-98728-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4612-1470-0Series ISSN 0938-037X | issn_series | 0938-037X | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1999 |
