Probing quantum mechanics with nanoparticle matter-wave interferometry

Fig. 3, panel (c)

Predicted fringe visibility $V$ of the quantum model for particles slowed against mass (kDa) and grating laser power $P_2$ (mW), at a mean velocity of about 25 m s$^{-1}$. The solid line marks the mass where the Talbot length equals the interferometer length, the dashed line where half of it does. The hosted map peaks near 0.9 where the print reaches 1, and some fringes are offset from the print.
