Opto-Electrical Cooling of Polar Molecules
M. Zeppenfeld, M. Motsch, P. W. H. Pinkse +1
We present an opto-electrical cooling scheme for polar molecules based on a Sisyphus-type cooling cycle in suitably tailored electric trapping fields. Dissipation is provided by sp…
Collisional effects in the formation of cold guided beams of polar molecules
Michael Motsch, Christian Sommer, Martin Zeppenfeld +3
High fluxes of cold polar molecules are efficiently produced by electric guiding and velocity filtering. Here, we investigate different aspects of the beam formation. Variations of…
Cold guided beams of water isotopologs
M. Motsch, L. D. van Buuren, C. Sommer +3
Electrostatic velocity filtering and guiding is an established technique to produce high fluxes of cold polar molecules. In this paper we clarify different aspects of this techniqu…
Electrostatic extraction of cold molecules from a cryogenic reservoir
L. D. van Buuren, C. Sommer, M. Motsch +5
We present a method which delivers a continuous, high-density beam of slow and internally cold polar molecules. In our source, warm molecules are first cooled by collisions with a…
Spectroscopy of formaldehyde in the 30140-30790cm^-1 range
Michael Motsch, Markus Schenk, Martin Zeppenfeld +4
Room-temperature absorption spectroscopy of formaldehyde has been performed in the 30140-30790cm^-1 range. Using tunable ultraviolet continuous-wave laser light, individual rotatio…
