High-fidelity entanglement of polar molecules by dynamic geometric control
Scarlett S. Yu, Avikar Periwal, Jiaqi You +6
The paper demonstrates that by dynamically controlling the geometry of dipolar interactions in optical tweezer arrays of ultracold molecules, coherence can be maintained despite th…
Photon Cycling and Laser Cooling of an Asymmetric Top Molecule
Grace K. Li, Giseok Lee, Jack Mango +8
We realize two-dimensional magnetically-assisted Sisyphus laser cooling of an asymmetric top molecule (ATM), calcium monoamide (CaNH). Vibrational state closure is achieved wit…
Enhanced Loading of a Molecular Magneto-Optical Trap
Ebram Youssef, Kaiya Wilson, Jiahe Cao +6
Molecular magneto-optical traps (MOTs) typically capture orders of magnitude fewer particles than their atomic counterparts due in part to their significantly lower capture velocit…
Quantum-State-Controlled Collisions of Ultracold Polyatomic Molecules
Nathaniel B. Vilas, Paige Robichaud, Christian Hallas +7
Collisions between ultracold calcium monohydroxide (CaOH) molecules are realized and studied. Inelastic collision rate constants are measured for CaOH prepared in ground and excite…
A conveyor-belt magneto-optical trap of CaF
Scarlett S. Yu, Jiaqi You, Yicheng Bao +8
We report the experimental realization of a conveyor-belt magneto-optical trap for calcium monofluoride (CaF) molecules. The obtained highly-compressed cloud has a mean radius of 6…
Magneto-optical trapping of a heavy polyatomic molecule for precision measurement
Zack D. Lasner, Alexander Frenett, Hiromitsu Sawaoka +10
We report a magneto-optical trap of strontium monohydroxide (SrOH) containing 2000(600) molecules at a temperature of 1.2(3) mK. The lifetime is 91(9) ms, which is limited by decay…
