Imaging Cold Molecules on a Chip [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2013 We present the integrated imaging of cold molecules in a microchip environment. The on-chip de- tection is based on REMPI, which is quantum-state-selective and generally applicable. We demon- strate and characterize time-resolved spatial imaging and subsequently use it to analyze the effect of a phase-space manipulation sequence aimed at compressing ...

Cold SO2 molecules by Stark deceleration [PDF]
The European Physical Journal D, 2008 We produce SO_2 molecules with a centre of mass velocity near zero using a Stark decelerator. Since the initial kinetic energy of the supersonic SO_2 molecular beam is high, and the removed kinetic energy per stage is small, 326 deceleration stages are necessary to bring SO_2 to a complete standstill, significantly more than in other experiments.

Physica Scripta, 2004 In this paper we overview recent results on the formation of translationally cold molecules. While there are some methods relying on direct cooling of molecules, we shall concentrate on the photoassociation technique that starts from laser-cooled atoms.

Enhanced molecular yield from a cryogenic buffer gas beam source via excited state chemistry
New Journal of Physics, 2020 We use narrow-band laser excitation of Yb atoms to substantially enhance the brightness of a cold beam of YbOH, a polyatomic molecule with high sensitivity to physics beyond the standard model (BSM).

Low-energy collisions between carbon atoms and oxygen molecules in a magnetic trap
New Journal of Physics, 2020 Trapping of atoms and molecules in electrostatic, magnetic and optical traps has enabled studying atomic and molecular interactions on a timescale of many seconds, allowing observations of ultra-cold collisions and reactions.

Polarizability of ultracold molecules in the rovibrational ground state of
New Journal of Physics, 2015 We study, both theoretically and experimentally, the dynamical polarizability $\alpha (\omega )$ of ${\mathrm{Rb}}_{2}$ molecules in the rovibrational ground state of ${a}^{3}{\Sigma }_{u}^{+}$ .

Maximizing the capture velocity of molecular magneto-optical traps with Bayesian optimization
New Journal of Physics, 2021 Magneto-optical trapping (MOT) is a key technique on the route towards ultracold molecular ensembles. However, the realization and optimization of magneto-optical traps with their wide parameter space is particularly difficult.

High-resolution mid-infrared spectroscopy of buffer-gas-cooled methyltrioxorhenium molecules
New Journal of Physics, 2017 We demonstrate cryogenic buffer-gas cooling of gas-phase methyltrioxorhenium (MTO). This molecule is closely related to chiral organometallic molecules where the parity-violating energy differences between enantiomers is measurable.
