A buffer gas beam source for short, intense and slow molecular pulses
S. Truppe, M. Hambach, S. M. Skoff +6
Experiments with cold molecules usually begin with a molecular source. We describe the construction and characteristics of a cryogenic buffer gas source of CaF molecules. The sourc…

Characteristics of a magneto-optical trap of molecules
H. J. Williams, S. Truppe, M. Hambach +5
We present the properties of a magneto-optical trap (MOT) of CaF molecules. We study the process of loading the MOT from a decelerated buffer-gas-cooled beam, and how best to slow…

Molecules cooled below the Doppler limit
S. Truppe, H. J. Williams, M. Hambach +5
The ability to cool atoms below the Doppler limit -- the minimum temperature reachable by Doppler cooling -- has been essential to most experiments with quantum degenerate gases, o…
