We study the dynamics of atomic waves in a two-dimensional light crystal formed by two crossed standing laser fields. The longitudinal modulation of the crystal with the Doppler frequency significantly influences the transversal spatial modulation of the atomic wave. Near the doppleron resonance the atomic density shows a fractional space period. In this case a normally incident wave gives rise to an almost perfect conversion into the first momentum components and the light crystal acts as a highly efficient beamsplitter. The crossing angle, determining the Doppler frequency, is the easy-to-control parameter of the system. |
