The isolation of biomolecules in a high vacuum enables experiments on fragile species in
the absence of a perturbing environment. Since many molecular properties are influenced …

Creating quantum superposition states of bodies with increasing mass and complexity is an
exciting and important challenge. Demonstrating such superpositions is vital for …

Chemistry as a natural science occupies the length and temporal scales ranging between
the formation of atoms and molecules as quasi-classical objects, and the formation of proto …

Matter-wave interference is evidence for a coherent splitting and recombination of a
particle's wavefunction, and thus provides an excellent testbed for confirming quantum …

Since the early 20th century, molecular beam research has led to many advances in physics
and chemistry, from precision molecule metrology, over tests of fundamental symmetries …

We discuss recent advances towards matter-wave interference experiments with free beams
of metallic and dielectric nanoparticles. They require a brilliant source, an efficient detection …

We review the concept of matter-wave assisted molecule metrology and present the most
recent experiments which exploit the capability of universal matter-wave interferometers to …

Matter wave interferometry is a useful tool to demonstrate quantum mechanical properties
for a broad class of matter [1–4]. With the newly constructed longbaseline universal matter …
