High resolution photoassociation spectroscopy of the excited potential of NaCs
Lewis R. B. Picard, Jessie T. Zhang, William B. Cairncross +8
We report on photoassociation spectroscopy probing the potential of the bi-alkali NaCs molecule, identifying eleven vibrational lines between and of…
A new bound on the electron's electric dipole moment
Tanya S. Roussy, Luke Caldwell, Trevor Wright +8
The Standard Model cannot explain the dominance of matter over anti-matter in our universe. This imbalance indicates undiscovered physics that violates combined CP symmetry. Many e…
Systematic and statistical uncertainty evaluation of the HfF electron electric dipole moment experiment
Luke Caldwell, Tanya S. Roussy, Trevor Wright +8
We have completed a new precision measurement of the electron's electric dipole moment using trapped HfF in rotating bias fields. We report on the accuracy evaluation of this m…
An optical tweezer array of ground-state polar molecules
Jessie T. Zhang, Lewis R. B. Picard, William B. Cairncross +4
Fully internal and motional state controlled and individually manipulable polar molecules are desirable for many quantum science applications leveraging the rich state space and in…
Assembly of a rovibrational ground state molecule in an optical tweezer
William B. Cairncross, Jessie T. Zhang, Lewis R. B. Picard +3
We demonstrate the coherent creation of a single NaCs molecule in its rotational, vibrational, and electronic (rovibronic) ground state in an optical tweezer. Starting with a weakl…
Coherent optical creation of a single molecule
Yichao Yu, Kenneth Wang, Jonathan D. Hood +7
We report coherent association of atoms into a single weakly bound NaCs molecule in an optical tweezer through an optical Raman transition. The Raman technique uses a deeply bound…
Forming a single molecule by magnetoassociation in an optical tweezer
Jessie T. Zhang, Yichao Yu, William B. Cairncross +6
We demonstrate the formation of a single NaCs molecule in an optical tweezer by magnetoassociation through an s-wave Feshbach resonance at 864.11(5)G. Starting from single atoms co…
Second-Scale Coherence Measured at the Quantum Projection Noise Limit with Hundreds of Molecular Ions
Yan Zhou, Yuval Shagam, William B. Cairncross +9
Cold molecules provide an excellent platform for quantum information, cold chemistry, and precision measurement. Certain molecules have enhanced sensitivity to beyond Standard Mode…
A precision measurement of the electron's electric dipole moment using trapped molecular ions
William B. Cairncross, Daniel N. Gresh, Matt Grau +6
We describe the first precision measurement of the electron's electric dipole moment (eEDM, ) using trapped molecular ions, demonstrating the application of spin interrogation…
