Sub-Doppler Cooling and Compressed Trapping of YO Molecules at K Temperatures
Shiqian Ding, Yewei Wu, Ian A. Finneran +2
Complex molecular structure demands customized solutions to laser cooling by extending its general set of principles and practices. Yttrium monoxide (YO) has unique intramolecular…
3-D Magneto-Optical Trap of Yttrium Monoxide
Alejandra L. Collopy, Shiqian Ding, Yewei Wu +5
We report three-dimensional trapping of an oxide molecule (YO), using a radio-frequency magneto-optical trap (MOT). The total number of molecules loaded is 1.5 ,…
Discovery of the Interstellar Chiral Molecule Propylene Oxide (CHCHCHO)
Brett A. McGuire, P. Brandon Carroll, Ryan A. Loomis +4
Life on Earth relies on chiral molecules, that is, species not superimposable on their mirror images. This manifests itself in the selection of a single molecular handedness, or ho…
Nonlinear TeraHertz Coherent Excitation of Vibrational Modes of Liquids
Marco A. Allodi, Ian A. Finneran, Geoffrey A. Blake
We report the first coherent excitation of intramolecular vibrational modes via the nonlinear interaction of a TeraHertz (THz) light field with molecular liquids. A terahertz-terah…
