Anisotropic Polarizability of Ultracold Polar KRb Molecules
B. Neyenhuis, B. Yan, S. A. Moses +6
We report the measurement of the anisotropic AC polarizability of ultracold polar KRb molecules in the ground and first rotationally excited states. Theoretical analy…
Long-lived dipolar molecules and Feshbach molecules in a 3D optical lattice
Amodsen Chotia, Brian Neyenhuis, Steven A. Moses +6
We have realized long-lived ground-state polar molecules in a 3D optical lattice, with a lifetime of up to 25 s, which is limited only by off-resonant scattering of the trapping li…
Ion detection in the photoionization of a Rb Bose-Einstein condensate
M. Viteau, J. Radogostowicz, A. Chotia +7
Two-photon ionization of Rubidium atoms in a magneto-optical trap and a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is experimentally investigated. Using 100 ns laser pulses, we detect single i…
Efficient formation of deeply bound ultracold molecules probed by broadband detection
Matthieu Viteau, Amodsen Chotia, Maria Allegrini +4
Using a non-selective broadband detection scheme we discovered an efficient mechanism of formation of ultracold Cs molecules in deeply bound levels () of their electroni…
Optical pumping and vibrational cooling of molecules
Matthieu Viteau, Amodsen Chotia, Maria Allegrini +4
The methods producing cold molecules from cold atoms tend to leave molecular ensembles with substantial residual internal energy. For instance, Cs2 molecules initially formed via p…
Ionization in a frozen Rydberg gas with attractive or repulsive potentials
Matthieu Viteau, Amodsen Chotia, Daniel Comparat +3
We report clear evidence of the role of dipole-dipole interaction in Penning ionization of Rydberg atoms, leading to the formation of an ultracold plasma. Penning ionization of np…
