Loic Anderegg,Loic Anderegg,Lawrence Cheuk,Lawrence Cheuk,Yicheng Bao,Yicheng Bao,Sean Burchesky,Sean Burchesky,Wolfgang Ketterle,Kang-Kuen Ni,Kang-Kuen Ni,John M. Doyle,John M. Doyle +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an optical tweezer array of laser-cooled calcium monofluoride molecules has been used to study ground-state collisions of ultracold molecules in the presence and absence of near-resonant light.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the production of trapped samples of laser-cooled CaF molecules with densities of 8'×'107 cm−3 and 2'× '10−9', 35 times higher than for sub-Doppler cooled samples in free space.
Journal ArticleDOI
Λ-Enhanced Imaging of Molecules in an Optical Trap.

TL;DR: The achieved number of scattered photons makes possible nondestructive single-shot detection of single molecules with high fidelity, and 200 times more fluorescence is obtained compared to destructive on-resonance imaging, and the trapped molecules remain at a temperature of 20 μK.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of Collisions between Two Ultracold Ground-State CaF Molecules
Lawrence Cheuk,Lawrence Cheuk,Lawrence Cheuk,Loic Anderegg,Loic Anderegg,Yicheng Bao,Yicheng Bao,Sean Burchesky,Sean Burchesky,Scarlett S. Yu,Scarlett S. Yu,Wolfgang Ketterle,Kang-Kuen Ni,Kang-Kuen Ni,John M. Doyle,John M. Doyle +15 more
TL;DR: In the absolute ground state, the inelastic collisions between ultracold CaF molecules are measured by combining two optical tweezers to find a two-body loss rate which is below, but close to, the predicted universal loss rate.

TL;DR: In this article, a magneto-optical trap was used to sub-cool calcium monofluoride (CaF) molecules into an optical dipole trap (ODT) and subsequently laser cooled within the trap.
