High-precision spectroscopy of ultracold molecules in an optical lattice

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
The study of ultracold molecules tightly trapped in an optical lattice can expand the frontier of precision measurement and spectroscopy, and provide a deeper insight into molecular and fundamental physics.

Feshbach-resonant Raman photoassociation in a Bose-Einstein condensate

open access: yes, 2011
We model the formation of stable heteronuclear molecules via pulsed Raman photoassociation of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate near a strong Feshbach resonance, for both counterintuitive and intuitive pulse sequencing.

Photoassociation inside an optical dipole trap: absolute rate coefficients and Franck-Condon factors

open access: yes, 2004
We present quantitative measurements of the photoassociation of cesium molecules inside a far-detuned optical dipole trap. A model of the trap depletion dynamics is derived which allows to extract absolute photoassociation rate coefficients for the ...

Detecting high-density ultracold molecules using atom–molecule collision

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2013
Utilizing single-photon photoassociation, we have achieved ultracold rubidium molecules with a high number density that provides a new efficient approach toward molecular quantum degeneracy.

Optimizing the photoassociation of cold atoms by use of chirped laser pulses

open access: yes, 2004
Photoassociation of ultracold atoms induced by chirped picosecond pulses is analyzed in a non-perturbative treatment by following the wavepackets dynamics on the ground and excited surfaces.

Bose-Stimulated Raman Adiabatic Passage in Photoassociation [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2000
We analyze coherent two-color photoassociation of a Bose-Einstein condensate, focusing on stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) in free-bound-bound transitions from atoms to molecules. This problem is of particular interest since STIRAP is predicted to be necessarily absent in the nondegenerate case [Javanainen and Mackie, Phys. Rev.

Saturation in heteronuclear photoassociation of 6Li7Li

open access: yes, 2002
We report heteronuclear photoassociation spectroscopy in a mixture of magneto-optically trapped 6Li and 7Li. Hyperfine resolved spectra of the vibrational level v=83 of the singlet state have been taken up to intensities of 1000 W/cm^2. Saturation of the

Quantum defect theory description of weakly bound levels and Feshbach resonances in LiRb

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
The multichannel quantum defect theory (MQDT) in combination with the frame transformation (FT) approach is applied to model the Fano–Feshbach resonances measured for ^7 Li ^87 Rb and ^6 Li ^87 Rb Marzok et al (2009 Phys. Rev. A http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/

Theory of Combined Photoassociation and Feshbach Resonances in a Bose-Einstein Condensate

open access: yes, 2009
We model combined photoassociation and Feshbach resonances in a Bose-Einstein condensate, where the shared dissociation continuum allows for quantum interference in losses from the condensate, as well as a dispersive-like shift of resonance.
