We calculate within a Bose-Hubbard tight-binding model the matter-wave flow driven by a constant force through a Bose-Einstein condensate of Rb 87 atoms in various types of quasi-onedimensional arrays of potential wells. Interference patterns are obtained when beam splitting is induced by creating energy minigaps either through period doubling or through quasi-periodicity governed by the Fibonacci series. The generation of such condensate modulations by means of optical-laser structures is also discussed.
