Excitation of weakly-bound molecules to trilobite-like Rydberg states
M. A. Bellos, R. Carollo, J. Banerjee +3
We observe "trilobite-like" states of ultracold 85Rb2 molecules, in which a ground-state atom is bound by the electronic wavefunction of its Rydberg-atom partner. We populate these…
Spectroscopy of the Double Minimum Electronic State of KRb
Jayita Banerjee, David Rahmlow, Ryan Carollo +4
We report the observation and analysis of the double-minimum electronic excited state of KRb. The spin-orbit components ( and 2) of this s…
Observation and Analysis of Resonant Coupling Between Near-Degenerate Levels of the 2 1Σg+ and 1 1 Πg States of Ultracold 85Rb2
R. Carollo, M. A. Bellos, D. Rahmlow +4
We report on the anomalously high line strength of a single rotational level in the ultracold photoassociation of two 85Rb atoms to form 85Rb2. The v' = 111, J' = 5 level belongs t…
Direct Photoassociative Formation of Ultracold KRb Molecules in the Lowest Vibrational Levels of the Ground State
Jayita Banerjee, David Rahmlow, Ryan Carollo +4
We report continuous direct photoassociative formation of ultracold KRb molecules in the lowest vibrational levels of the electronic ground state , starting…
Formation of ultracold metastable Rb2 molecules in their v"=0 level by blue-detuned photoassociation
M. A. Bellos, D. Rahmlow, R. Carollo +6
We report on the observation of blue-detuned photoassociation in Rb2, in which vibrational levels are energetically above the corresponding excited atomic asymptote. 85Rb atoms in…
Enhancement of the formation of ultracold Rb molecules due to resonant coupling
H. K. Pechkis, D. Wang, Y. Huang +4
We have studied the effect of resonant electronic state coupling on the formation of ultracold ground-state Rb. Ultracold Rb molecules are formed by photoassociation…
