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…
