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…

Reduction of laser intensity noise over 1 MHz band for single atom trapping

Yu Wang, Kenneth Wang, Eliot F. Fenton +3

We reduce the intensity noise of laser light by using an electro-optic modulator and a cousto-optic modulator in series. The electro-optic modulator reduces noise at high frequency…

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…

Multichannel interactions of two atoms in an optical tweezer

Jonathan D. Hood, Yichao Yu, Yen-Wei Lin +5

The multichannel Na-Cs interactions are characterized by a series of measurements using two atoms in an optical tweezer, along with a multichannel quantum defect theory (MQDT). The…

Molecular assembly of ground state cooled single atoms

Lee R. Liu, Jonathan D. Hood, Yichao Yu +5

We demonstrate full quantum state control of two species of single atoms using optical tweezers and assemble the atoms into a molecule. Our demonstration includes 3D ground-state c…
