@Book{1009226517, author="Fiedler, Johannes", title="Molecular spectroscopy from far-field matter-wave interferometry", year="2017", address="Rostock", abstract="We derive a model describing the Casimir-Polder interaction between a surface and an extended particle. This method can be used to explain matter-wave interference patterns of large organic molecules diffracting at a grating. We reconstruct the interaction from the interference pattern by additional measurements: the phase information encoded in the matter wave is mapped out by an implementation of Hartmann-Shack sensor for neutral matter waves. Together with tomographic reconstruction of the interaction potential, the polarisability of the interfering particle can be estimated.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Dipl.-Phys.
