Non-stick vacuum wall collisions with a laser-coolable molecule

P. Kukreja, L. A. Rautenberg, J. C. Blumenstock +3

Molecular species that are suitable for direct laser cooling are typically considered lost or destroyed if they collide with an ambient temperature vacuum wall. Here, we study surf…

A two-color dual-oscillator infrared free-electron laser

Wieland Schöllkopf, Sandy Gewinner, Marco De Pas +16

We report on the design and performance of a two-color dual-oscillator infrared free-electron laser (FEL). The mid-infrared (MIR) FEL at the Fritz Haber Institute (FHI FEL) has bee…

Continuous thermochemical sources of AlF molecules

Pulkit Kukreja, Priyansh Agarwal, Maximilian Doppelbauer +10

The AlF molecule, currently subject to laser cooling and trapping efforts, has the advantage that it can be efficiently produced in a thermochemical reaction between sublimated alu…

A large magneto-optical trap of cadmium atoms loaded from a cryogenic buffer gas beam

J. E. Padilla-Castillo, S. Hofsäss, L. Palánki +7

We demonstrate rapid loading of a magneto-optical trap (MOT) of cadmium atoms from a pulsed cryogenic helium buffer gas beam, overcoming strong photoionization losses. Using the $…

Optical cycling of AlF molecules

Simon Hofsäss, Maximilian Doppelbauer, Sid Wright +5

Aluminium monofluoride (AlF) is a promising candidate for laser cooling and trapping at high densities. We show efficient production of AlF in a bright, pulsed cryogenic buffer gas…

Spectroscopic characterization of aluminum monofluoride with relevance to laser cooling and trapping

S. Truppe, S. Marx, S. Kray +7

Here we report on spectroscopic measurements of the aluminum monofluoride molecule (AlF) that are relevant to laser cooling and trapping experiments. We measure the detailed energy…
