Cold Molecules: Preparation, Applications, and Challenges

Angewandte Chemie - International Edition, 2009
AbstractResearch with cold molecules has developed rapidly in recent years. There is now a variety of established methods for cooling molecules into the millikelvin range. Nevertheless, a focal point of current research is directed toward finding new ways to bring the temperature of molecules even closer to absolute zero.

Cold and ultracold molecules in the twenties

Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2023
A diversity of experimental techniques has been developed over the last 25 years to create samples of molecular gases at temperatures close to the Absolute Zero—here we consider samples in the range from 10s of Kelvin (cold) down to 10s of nanoKelvin (ultracold). In these exotic physical environments, a range of novel experiments can be conducted which

Cold collisions of hot molecules

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2023
Stimulated emission pumping is combined with imaging to study inelastic collisions of highly vibrationally excited NO down to 2 K. Results are compared to quantum close-coupling calculations on high-level potential energy surfaces.

The Quest for Cold and Ultracold Molecules

ChemPhysChem, 2009
AbstractCool molecules: The cooling of molecules to sub‐Kelvin temperatures promises to have a great impact in chemistry and physics. Recently, the first experimental realizations of samples of deeply bound molecules that are approaching the ultracold regime were reported. In this contribution, these interesting results are briefly discussed.

Cold Collisions of Electrons with Molecules

Few-Body Systems, 2002
Results are presented of high-resolution scattering experiments involving electron collisions with CO2 and CS2, between a few meV and 200 meV impact energy. Virtual state scattering is shown to dominate the low-energy behaviour for both species. The most striking features of the scattering spectrum for CS2 are, however, giant resonances with cross ...

Why are Cold Molecules so Hot?

ChemPhysChem, 2009
AbstractBrrrr! Cold molecule and cold atom research are juxtaposed and the challenges in cooling and trapping molecules are recounted. Both indirect and direct techniques of producing cold and slow molecules (such as buffer‐gas cooling and magnetic trapping, see picture) are described.

Trapping cold molecules

SPIE Proceedings, 2002
An experiment is described in which 10 8 CaH molecules have been confined in a magnetic trap at a temperature of 400 mK. The elastic scattering cross section of CaH on 3 He was measured to be σ el equals(1.5±0.6)×10 -14 cm 2 . A lower bound of Γ rotational g10 -15 cm 3 s -1 was placed on the rotational elastic collision rate coefficient, and an ...

Tweezing cold molecules

Science, 2019
Cold Molecules Arrays of optical tweezers have been used to trap atoms, but trapping and laser-cooling molecules in this setting is tricky. Such an approach would, however, be generalizable to many molecular species. Anderegg et al. created an optical tweezer array of calcium monofluoride molecules, which were laser cooled to their ground state (see ...
