Studying fundamental physics using quantum enabled technologies with trapped molecular ions
D. Segal, V. Lorent, R. Dubessy +1
The text below was written during two visits that Daniel Segal made at Universit{é} Paris 13. Danny stayed at Laboratoire de Physique des Lasers the summers of 2008 and 2009 to par…
Cooling Techniques for Trapped Ions
Daniel M. Segal, Christof Wunderlich
This book chapter gives an introduction to, and an overview of, methods for cooling trapped ions. The main addressees are researchers entering the field. It is not intended as a co…
Laser cooling of externally produced Mg ions in a Penning trap for sympathetic cooling of highly charged ions
Z. Andelkovic, R. Cazan, W. Nörtershäuser +7
We have performed laser cooling of Mg ions confined in a Penning trap. The externally produced ions were captured in flight, stored and laser cooled. Laser-induced fluorescence was…
Diffusion, thermalization and optical pumping of YbF molecules in a cold buffer gas cell
S. M. Skoff, R. J. Hendricks, C. D. J. Sinclair +5
We produce YbF molecules with a density of 10^18 m^-3 using laser ablation inside a cryogenically-cooled cell filled with a helium buffer gas. Using absorption imaging and absorpti…
Doppler-free laser spectroscopy of buffer gas cooled molecular radicals
S. M. Skoff, R. J. Hendricks, C. D. J. Sinclair +5
We demonstrate Doppler-free saturated absorption spectroscopy of cold molecular radicals formed by laser ablation inside a cryogenic buffer gas cell. By lowering the temperature, c…
Laser cooling in the Penning trap: an analytical model for cooling rates in the presence of an axializing field
R. J. Hendricks, E. S. Phillips, D. M. Segal +1
Ions stored in Penning traps may have useful applications in the field of quantum information processing. There are, however, difficulties associated with the laser cooling of one…
