Laser Cooling of Trapped Ions in Strongly Inhomogeneous Magnetic Fields
Richard Karl, Yanning Yin, Stefan Willitsch
Hybrid traps for the simultaneous confinement of neutrals and ions have recently emerged as versatile tools for studying interactions between these species at very low temperatures…
Frequency stabilisation and SI tracing of mid-infrared quantum-cascade lasers for precision molecular spectroscopy
Mudit Sinhal, Anatoly Johnson, Stefan Willitsch
The advancement of technologies for the precise interrogation of molecules offers exciting possibilities for new studies in the realms of precision spectroscopy and quantum technol…
Ion loss events in a cold Rb-Ca hybrid trap: photodissociation, black-body radiation and non-radiative charge exchange
Xiaodong Xing, Humberto da Silva, Romain Vexiau +3
We theoretically investigate the collisional dynamics of laser-cooled Rb ground-state atoms and Ca ground-state ions in the context of the hybrid trap experiment…
Molecular-ion quantum technologies
Mudit Sinhal, Stefan Willitsch
Quantum-logic techniques for state preparation, manipulation, and non-destructive interrogation are increasingly being adopted for experiments on single molecular ions confined in…
