Optical polarizabilities of large molecules measured in near-field interferometry
Lucia Hackermueller, Klaus Hornberger, Stefan Gerlich +3
We discuss a novel application of matter wave interferometry to characterize the scalar optical polarizability of molecules at 532 nm. The interferometer presented here consists of…
Decoherence of matter waves by thermal emission of radiation
Lucia Hackermueller, Klaus Hornberger, Bjoern Brezger +2
Emergent quantum technologies have led to increasing interest in decoherence - the processes that limit the appearance of quantum effects and turn them into classical phenomena. On…
Decoherence in a Talbot Lau interferometer: the influence of molecular scattering
Lucia Hackermueller, Klaus Hornberger, Bjoern Brezger +2
We study the interference of C70 fullerenes in a Talbot-Lau interferometer with a large separation between the diffraction gratings. This permits the observation of recurrences of…
