A new experiment to test parity symmetry in cold chiral molecules using vibrational spectroscopy

A Cournol, M. Manceau, M. Pierens +21

We present a brief review of our progress towards measuring parity violation in heavy-metal chiral complexes using mid-infrared Ramsey interferometry. We discuss our progress addre…

Sideband cooling of molecules in optical traps

L. Caldwell, M. R. Tarbutt

Sideband cooling is a popular method for cooling atoms to the ground state of an optical trap. Applying the same method to molecules requires a number of challenges to be overcome.…

Long rotational coherence times of molecules in a magnetic trap

L. Caldwell, H. J. Williams, N. J. Fitch +4

Polar molecules in superpositions of rotational states exhibit long-range dipolar interactions, but maintaining their coherence in a trapped sample is a challenge. We present calcu…

Microwave trap for atoms and molecules

S. C. Wright, T. E. Wall, M. R. Tarbutt

We demonstrate a trap that confines polarizable particles around the antinode of a standing-wave microwave field. The trap relies only on the polarizability of the particles far fr…

Laser cooling of molecules

M. R. Tarbutt

Recently, laser cooling methods have been extended from atoms to molecules. The complex rotational and vibrational energy level structure of molecules makes laser cooling difficult…
