Many-Body Force and Mobility Measurements in Colloidal Systems
Jason W. Merrill, Sunil K. Sainis, Jerzy Blawzdziewicz +1
We demonstrate a technique for simultaneously measuring each component of the force vectors and mobility tensor of a small collection of colloidal particles based on observing a se…
Many-Body Electrostatic Forces Between Colloidal Particles at Vanishing Ionic Strength
Jason W. Merrill, Sunil K. Sainis, Eric R. Dufresne
Electrostatic forces between small groups of colloidal particles are measured using blinking optical tweezers. When the electrostatic screening length is significantly larger than…
Enhanced sensitivity to variation of in molecular spectra
D. DeMille, S. Sainis, J. Sage +3
We propose new experiments with high sensitivity to a possible spatial or temporal variation of the electron-to-proton mass ratio . We consider a nearly-degenerate…
Statistics of Particle Trajectories at Short Time Intervals Reveal fN-Scale Colloidal Forces
Sunil K. Sainis, Vincent Germain, Eric R. Dufresne
We describe and implement a technique for extracting forces from the relaxation of an overdamped thermal system with normal modes. At sufficiently short time intervals, the evoluti…
Optical Production of Ultracold Polar Molecules
J. M. Sage, S. Sainis, T. Bergeman +1
We demonstrate the production of ultracold polar RbCs molecules in their vibronic ground state, via photoassociation of laser-cooled atoms followed by a laser-stimulated state tran…
Production and state-selective detection of ultracold, ground state RbCs molecules
Andrew J. Kerman, Jeremy M. Sage, Sunil Sainis +2
Using resonance-enhanced two-photon ionization, we detect ultracold, ground-state RbCs molecules formed via photoassociation in a laser-cooled mixture of 85Rb and 133Cs atoms. We o…
