Zeeman-Sisyphus Deceleration of Molecular Beams
Benjamin L. Augenbraun, Alexander Frenett, Hiromitsu Sawaoka +5
We present a robust, continuous molecular decelerator that employs high magnetic fields and few optical pumping steps. CaOH molecules are slowed, accumulating at low velocities in…
Fast and High-Yield Loading of a D MOT of Potassium from a Cryogenic Buffer Gas Beam
Zack Lasner, Debayan Mitra, Maryam Hiradfar +5
We demonstrate the direct loading of a D MOT of potassium-39 atoms from a cryogenic buffer gas beam source. We load atoms in a 10 ms pulse, with no degradation in perfor…
Accurate prediction and measurement of vibronic branching ratios for laser cooling linear polyatomic molecules
Chaoqun Zhang, Benjamin L. Augenbraun, Zack D. Lasner +3
We report a generally applicable computational and experimental approach to determine vibronic branching ratios in linear polyatomic molecules to the level, including for…
