Capture velocities for direct loading of heavy molecules into conveyor-belt magneto-optical traps

Shoukang Yang, Shuhua Deng, Zixuan Zeng +1

Conveyor-belt magneto-optical traps (CB-MOTs) use blue-detuned polarization-gradient forces to provide simultaneous cooling, confinement, and loading on type-II molecular transitio…

Optical pumping and laser slowing of a heavy molecule

Shuhua Deng, Shoukang Yang, Zixuan Zeng +1

Precision measurements of the electron's electric dipole moment (eEDM) are critical for testing fundamental symmetries in particle physics, and heavy polar molecules-such as barium…

Blue-detuned Magneto-optical Trap of BaF molecules

Zixuan Zeng, Shoukang Yang, Shuhua Deng +1

We report the realization of a blue-detuned magneto-optical trap (BDM) of BaF molecules. The (1 + 1) type BDM and (1 + 2) type conveyor-belt MOT are explored. While the (1+1) BDM p…

Three-dimensional Magneto-optical Trapping of Barium Monofluoride

Zixuan Zeng, Shuhua Deng, Shoukang Yang +1

As a heavy molecule, barium monofluoride (BaF) presents itself as a promising candidate for measuring permanent electric dipole moment. The precision of such measurements can be si…

Doppler cooling of buffer-gas-cooled Barium monofluoride molecules

Yuhe Zhang, Zixuan Zeng, Qian Liang +2

We demonstrate one-dimensional Doppler cooling of a beam of buffer-gas cooled Barium monofluoride (BaF) molecules. The dependences of the cooling efficiency with the laser detuning…

Isotope Separation of Potassium with a magneto-optical combined method

Zixuan Zeng, Shangjin Li, Bo Yan

Due to the similar physical and chemical properties, isotopes are usually hard to separate. On the other hand, the isotope shifts are very well separated in a high-resolution spect…
