Abstract: In this paper, the authors present the results of their study on the scheme of reconstructing the atomic wave function by using a standing wave laser beam. The scheme effectively avoids the initial random phase problem of the running light wave of lasers. The paper presents the relation between measured data and the atomic wave function, whose reconstruction procedure is also analyzed.
