Enhancing reactivity of SiO ions by controlled excitation to extreme rotational states
Sruthi Venkataramanababu, Anyang Li, Ivan Antonov +4
Optical pumping of molecules provides unique opportunities for control of chemical reactions at a wide range of rotational energies. This work reports a chemical reaction with extr…
Precisely Spun Super Rotors
Ivan O. Antonov, Patrick R. Stollenwerk, Sruthi Venkataramanababu +3
Improved optical control of molecular quantum states promises new applications including chemistry in the quantum regime, precision tests of fundamental physics, and quantum inform…
Cooling of a Zero-Nuclear-Spin Molecular Ion to a Selected Rotational State
Patrick R. Stollenwerk, Ivan O. Antonov, Sruthi Venkataramanababu +2
We demonstrate rotational cooling of the silicon monoxide cation via optical pumping by a spectrally filtered broadband laser. Compared with diatomic hydrides, SiO\+ is more challe…
Optical Pumping of TeH+: Implications for the Search for Varying mp/me
Patrick Stollenwerk, Mark G. Kokish, Antonio G. S. de Oliveira-Filho +2
Molecular overtone transitions provide optical frequency transitions sensitive to variation in the proton-to-electron mass ratio (). However, robust molecular stat…
IP determination and 1+1 REMPI spectrum of SiO at 210-220 nm with implications for SiO ion trap loading
Patrick R. Stollenwerk, Ivan O. Antonov, Brian C. Odom
The 1+1 REMPI spectrum of SiO in the 210-220 nm range is recorded. Observed bands are assigned to the vibrational bands and a tentative assignment is giv…
Prospects for Polar Molecular Ion Optical Probe of Varying Proton-Electron Mass Ratio
Mark G. Kokish, Patrick R. Stollenwerk, Masatoshi Kajita +1
Molecules with deep vibrational potential wells provide optical intervals sensitive to variation in the proton-electron mass ratio (). On one hand, polar molecules are of intere…
Electronic spectroscopy of a cold SiO sample: Implications for optical pumping
P. R. Stollenwerk, B. C. Odom, D. L. Kokkin +1
The dispersed fluorescence following pulsed dye laser excitation of the band of a cold sample of SiO has been recorded and analyzed.…
Rotational State Analysis of AlH+ by Two-Photon Dissociation
Christopher M. Seck, Edward G. Hohenstein, Chien-Yu Lien +2
We perform ab-initio calculations needed to predict the cross-section of an experimentally accessible (1+1') resonance-enhanced multiphoton dissociation (REMPD) pathway in AlH+. Ex…
