| Popis: |
The expansion of laser cooling capabilities from the atomic to the molecular regime has proven challenging due to the lack of availability of an equivalent closed-loop cooling cycle within the rich molecular internal energy level structure. An enticing solution is the application of ultrafast coherent control techniques to ultracold molecule generation. Unlike continuous-wave photoassociation techniques, the use of broadband ‘pump’ and ‘dump’ pulses offers the opportunity to access deeply bound vibrational states [1]. Unlike alternative vibrational cooling strategies such as stimulated Raman adiabatic passage or incoherent optical cycling [2∓4], this approach preserves coherence and does not require a detailed knowledge of the system spectroscopy. |
