Order of Magnitude Improved Optical Trapping of Molecules Through Transverse Cooling
Abdullah Nasir, Annika Lunstad, Mingda Li +5
We demonstrate a two-dimensional Sisyphus laser cooling method that increases the number of strontium monohydroxide (SrOH) molecules loaded into a magneto-optical trap by a factor…
Parity-Doublet Coherence Times in Optically Trapped Polyatomic Molecules
Paige Robichaud, Christian Hallas, Junheng Tao +3
Polyatomic molecules provide complex internal structures that are ideal for applications in quantum information science, quantum simulation, and precision searches for physics beyo…
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…
Conveyor-belt magneto-optical trapping of molecules
Grace K. Li, Christian Hallas, John M. Doyle
Laser cooling is used to produce ultracold atoms and molecules for quantum science and precision measurement applications. Molecules are more challenging to cool than atoms due to…
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…
High Compression Blue-Detuned Magneto-Optical Trap of Polyatomic Molecules
Christian Hallas, Grace K. Li, Nathaniel B. Vilas +3
We demonstrate a blue-detuned magneto-optical trap (MOT) of a polyatomic molecule, calcium monohydroxide (CaOH). We identify a novel MOT frequency configuration that produces high…
