Grating magneto-optical traps with complicated level structures
D. S. Barker, P. K. Elgee, A. Sitaram +4
We study the forces and optical pumping within grating magneto-optical traps (MOTs) operating on transitions with non-trivial level structure. In contrast to the standard six-beam…

Simulations of a frequency-chirped magneto-optical trap of MgF
Kayla J. Rodriguez, Nickolas H. Pilgram, Daniel S. Barker +2
We simulate the capture process of MgF molecules into a frequency-chirped molecular MOT. Our calculations show that by chirping the frequency, the MOT capture velocity is increased…
