Trapping molecules on a chip in traveling potential wells
Samuel A. Meek, Hendrick L. Bethlem, Horst Conrad +1
A microstructured array of over 1200 electrodes on a substrate has been configured to generate an array of local minima of electric field strength with a periodicity of m ab…
A versatile electrostatic trap
Jacqueline van Veldhoven, Hendrick L. Bethlem, Melanie Schnell +1
A four electrode electrostatic trap geometry is demonstrated that can be used to combine a dipole, quadrupole and hexapole field. A cold packet of 15ND3 molecules is confined in bo…
An AC electric trap for ground-state molecules
Jacqueline van Veldhoven, Hendrick L. Bethlem, Gerard Meijer
We here report on the realization of an electrodynamic trap, capable of trapping neutral atoms and molecules in both low-field and high-field seeking states. Confinement in three d…
Slowing heavy, ground-state molecules using an alternating gradient decelerator
M. R. Tarbutt, H. L. Bethlem, J. J. Hudson +5
Cold supersonic beams of molecules can be slowed down using a switched sequence of electrostatic field gradients. The energy to be removed is proportional to the mass of the molecu…
