Non-stick vacuum wall collisions with a laser-coolable molecule
P. Kukreja, L. A. Rautenberg, J. C. Blumenstock +3
Molecular species that are suitable for direct laser cooling are typically considered lost or destroyed if they collide with an ambient temperature vacuum wall. Here, we study surf…
Robust watt-level continuous-wave deep-ultraviolet lasers near 230 nm
J. Cai, M. Stoepper, P. Agarwal +20
Continuous-wave (CW) deep-ultraviolet (DUV) lasers near 230~nm enable laser cooling of AlF, Cd, and Zn, but second-harmonic generation below 237~nm relies in practice on beta-bariu…
Continuous thermochemical sources of AlF molecules
Pulkit Kukreja, Priyansh Agarwal, Maximilian Doppelbauer +10
The AlF molecule, currently subject to laser cooling and trapping efforts, has the advantage that it can be efficiently produced in a thermochemical reaction between sublimated alu…
Magneto-optical trapping of aluminum monofluoride
J. E. Padilla-Castillo, J. Cai, P. Agarwal +6
Magneto-optical trapping of molecules has thus far been restricted to molecules with electronic ground states. These species are chemically reactive and only support a simple…
