Quantum reflection is a phenomenon observed in quantum mechanics, particularly related to the behavior of particles at very short distances and in specific potential landscapes. It occurs when a quantum particle, such as an atom or a photon, encounters a potential barrier that is lower than the particle's energy, leading to the particle being reflected rather than transmitted through the barrier. In classical physics, it is expected that a particle with enough energy will pass through a barrier.
