Reduction of laser intensity noise over 1 MHz band for single atom trapping
Yu Wang, Kenneth Wang, Eliot F. Fenton +3
We reduce the intensity noise of laser light by using an electro-optic modulator and a cousto-optic modulator in series. The electro-optic modulator reduces noise at high frequency…
Cooling of a Zero-Nuclear-Spin Molecular Ion to a Selected Rotational State
Patrick R. Stollenwerk, Ivan O. Antonov, Sruthi Venkataramanababu +2
We demonstrate rotational cooling of the silicon monoxide cation via optical pumping by a spectrally filtered broadband laser. Compared with diatomic hydrides, SiO\+ is more challe…
Forming a single molecule by magnetoassociation in an optical tweezer
Jessie T. Zhang, Yichao Yu, William B. Cairncross +6
We demonstrate the formation of a single NaCs molecule in an optical tweezer by magnetoassociation through an s-wave Feshbach resonance at 864.11(5)G. Starting from single atoms co…
Direct observation of bimolecular reactions of ultracold KRb molecules
Ming-Guang Hu, Yu Liu, David D. Grimes +7
Femtochemistry techniques have been instrumental in accessing the short time scales necessary to probe transient intermediates in chemical reactions. Here we take the contrasting a…
Multichannel interactions of two atoms in an optical tweezer
Jonathan D. Hood, Yichao Yu, Yen-Wei Lin +5
The multichannel Na-Cs interactions are characterized by a series of measurements using two atoms in an optical tweezer, along with a multichannel quantum defect theory (MQDT). The…
Molecular assembly of ground state cooled single atoms
Lee R. Liu, Jonathan D. Hood, Yichao Yu +5
We demonstrate full quantum state control of two species of single atoms using optical tweezers and assemble the atoms into a molecule. Our demonstration includes 3D ground-state c…
Broadband optical cooling of molecular rotors from room temperature to the ground state
Chien-Yu Lien, Christopher M. Seck, Yen-Wei Lin +3
Laser cycling of resonances can remove entropy from a system via spontaneously emitted photons, with electronic resonances providing the fastest cooling timescales because of their…
