We show how to construct asymmetric optical barriers for atoms. These
barriers can be used to compress phase space of a sample by creating a confined
region in space where atoms can accumulate with heating at the single photon
recoil level. We illustrate our method with a simple two-level model and then
show how it can be applied to more realistic multi-level atoms.
