Ultracold polar molecules near quantum degeneracy
S. Ospelkaus, K. -K. Ni, M. H. G. de Miranda +6
We report the creation and characterization of a near quantum-degenerate gas of polar K-Rb molecules in their absolute rovibrational ground state. Starting from weakl…
Ultracold dense gas of deeply bound heteronuclear molecules
S. Ospelkaus, A. Pe'er, K. -K. Ni +6
Recently, the quest for an ultracold and dense ensemble of polar molecules has attracted strong interest. Polar molecules have bright prospects for novel quantum gases with long-ra…
Inelastic collisions of ultra-cold heteronuclear molecules in an optical trap
Eric R. Hudson, Nathan B. Gilfoy, Svetlana Kotochigova +2
Ultra-cold RbCs molecules in high-lying vibrational levels of the a ground electronic state are confined in an optical trap. Inelastic collision rates of these molecules wit…
