Photon Cycling and Laser Cooling of an Asymmetric Top Molecule
Grace K. Li, Giseok Lee, Jack Mango +8
We realize two-dimensional magnetically-assisted Sisyphus laser cooling of an asymmetric top molecule (ATM), calcium monoamide (CaNH). Vibrational state closure is achieved wit…

Optical cycling on thorium monoxide (ThO) for an improved test of fundamental symmetries
Alexander Frenett, Dorothy Gan, Nicholas Emtage +3
Optical cycling refers to repeated excitation and spontaneous emission on an electronic transition in an atom or molecule. Optical cycling in molecules can enable a wide range of q…
