Formation of adatom density gratings on a substrate by channeling of an atomic beam through a pulsed-laser standing wave under a completely off-resonant condition.
We show that a transversely uncooled atomic beam can be focused by a microsecond laser standing wave to form adatom density gratings on a substrate with good contrast ratio under a completely off-resonant condition (D?/? ~ 1) .
