Open-Loop Control of Quantum Particle Motion: Effective Splitting in Momentum Space

Abstract

In this paper an effective quantum particle beam-splitter in the momentum space is realized in the frame of open-loop control scheme. We demonstrate for small interaction time that the splitting effect $\pm 40\hslash k$ with summarized relative intensity in both main components is about 50 per cent from initial intensity of the atomic beam.
