Zeeman-Sisyphus Deceleration for Heavy Molecules with Perturbed Excited-State Structure
Hiromitsu Sawaoka, Alexander Frenett, Abdullah Nasir +4
We demonstrate and characterize Zeeman-Sisyphus (ZS) deceleration of a beam of ytterbium monohydroxide (YbOH). Our method uses a combination of large magnetic fields ( 2.5 T)…
High-Resolution Laser Spectroscopy of a Functionalized Aromatic Molecule
Benjamin L. Augenbraun, Sean Burchesky, Andrew Winnicki +1
We present a high-resolution laser spectroscopic study of the and transitions of calcium (I) phenoxide, Ca…
Laser spectroscopy of aromatic molecules with optical cycling centers: strontium (I) phenoxides
Guanming Lao, Guo-Zhu Zhu, Claire E. Dickerson +5
We report the production and spectroscopic characterization of strontium (I) phenoxide (, or SrOPh) and variants featuring electron-withdrawing groups…
Pathway Towards Optical Cycling and Laser Cooling of Functionalized Arenes
Debayan Mitra, Zack D. Lasner, Guo-Zhu Zhu +8
Rapid and repeated photon cycling has enabled precision metrology and the development of quantum information systems using a variety of atoms and simple molecules. Extending optica…
Functionalizing Aromatic Compounds with Optical Cycling Centers
Guo-Zhu Zhu, Debayan Mitra, Benjamin L. Augenbraun +9
Molecular design principles provide guidelines for augmenting a molecule with a smaller group of atoms to realize a desired property or function. We demonstrate that these concepts…
