Phys. Rev. A 61, 063806 (2000) [5 pages]Atom localization via resonance fluorescenceReceived 8 July 1999; published 11 May 2000 We propose a simple scheme of atom localization based on resonance fluorescence from a standing-wave field. The Rabi frequency is position dependent and therefore the spontaneously emitted photon carries the information of the atomic center-of-mass motion. This leads to atom localization even during the flight through the standing-wave field. © 2000 The American Physical Society URL:
