Blue-detuned magneto-optical trap
K. N. Jarvis, J. A. Devlin, T. E. Wall +2
We present the properties and advantages of a new magneto-optical trap (MOT) where blue-detuned light drives `type-II' transitions that have dark ground states. Using Rb, we…
Ultracold molecules for measuring the electron's electric dipole moment
J. Lim, J. R. Almond, M. A. Trigatzis +5
We demonstrate one-dimensional sub-Doppler laser cooling of a beam of YbF molecules to 100 K. This is a key step towards a measurement of the electron's electric dipole moment u…
A buffer gas beam source for short, intense and slow molecular pulses
S. Truppe, M. Hambach, S. M. Skoff +6
Experiments with cold molecules usually begin with a molecular source. We describe the construction and characteristics of a cryogenic buffer gas source of CaF molecules. The sourc…
Molecules cooled below the Doppler limit
S. Truppe, H. J. Williams, M. Hambach +5
The ability to cool atoms below the Doppler limit -- the minimum temperature reachable by Doppler cooling -- has been essential to most experiments with quantum degenerate gases, o…
