Cavity cooling of translational and ro-vibrational motion of molecules: ab initio-based simulations for OH and NO
Markus Kowalewski, Giovanna Morigi, Pepijn W. H. Pinkse +1
We present detailed calculations at the basis of our recent proposal for simultaneous cooling the rotational, vibrational and external molecular degrees of freedom. In this method,…
Doppler-Free Spectroscopy of Weak Transitions: An Analytical Model Applied to Formaldehyde
M. Zeppenfeld, M. Motsch, P. W. H. Pinkse +1
Experimental observation of Doppler-free signals for weak transitions can be greatly facilitated by an estimate for their expected amplitudes. We derive an analytical model which a…
Cavity cooling of internal molecular motion
Giovanna Morigi, Pepijn W. H. Pinkse, Markus Kowalewski +1
We predict that it is possible to cool rotational, vibrational and translational degrees of freedom of molecules by coupling a molecular dipole transition to an optical cavity. The…
Light force fluctuations in a strongly coupled atom-cavity system
T. Puppe, I. Schuster, P. Maunz +3
Between mirrors, the density of electromagnetic modes differs from the one in free space. This changes the radiation properties of an atom as well as the light forces acting on an…
Trapping and observing single atoms in the dark
T. Puppe, I. Schuster, A. Grothe +4
A single atom strongly coupled to a cavity mode is stored by three-dimensional confinement in blue-detuned cavity modes of different longitudinal and transverse order. The vanishin…
