Mapping the parameter space of double microwave shielding
Hubert J. Jóźwiak, Hubert J. Jóźwiak, Ian Stevenson +2
Double microwave shielding employs - and -polarized microwave fields, tuned close to the lowest rotational transition, to engineer a long-range repulsive barrier between…
Strongly dipolar molecular Bose-Einstein condensates: From few- to many-body physics
Andreas Schindewolf, Jens Hertkorn, Ian Stevenson +8
Recent advances in molecular cooling have enabled the realization of strongly dipolar Bose--Einstein condensates (BECs) of molecules, and BECs of many different molecular species m…
Observation of Self-Bound Droplets of Ultracold Dipolar Molecules
Siwei Zhang, Weijun Yuan, Niccolò Bigagli +4
Ultracold gases of dipolar molecules have long been envisioned as a platform for the realization of novel quantum phases. Recent advances in collisional shielding, protecting molec…
Double Microwave Shielding
Tijs Karman, Niccolò Bigagli, Weijun Yuan +3
We develop double microwave shielding, which has recently enabled evaporative cooling to the first Bose-Einstein condensate of polar molecules [Bigagli et al., Nature 631, 289 (202…
Extreme Loss Suppression and Wide Tunability of Dipolar Interactions in an Ultracold Molecular Gas
Weijun Yuan, Siwei Zhang, Niccolò Bigagli +5
Ultracold dipolar molecules hold great promise for the creation of novel quantum states of matter, but the realization of long-lived molecular bulk samples with strong dipole-dipol…
