Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 4980–4983 (1996)Atom Waves in Crystals of LightReceived 23 May 1996; published in the issue dated 16 December 1996 We present experiments studying the coherent motion of atoms in crystals made from on and off resonant light. The experiments confirm that inside the light-field atoms fulfilling the Bragg condition form a standing matter wave pattern. As a consequence we observed anomalous transmission of atoms through resonant light fields. © 1996 The American Physical Society URL:
