selective population transfer between quantum states without suffering loss due to …

We report on the creation of an ultracold dipolar gas of fermionic Na 23 K 40 molecules in
their absolute rovibrational and hyperfine ground state. Starting from weakly bound …

We report the successful production of an ultracold sample of absolute ground-state Na 23
Rb 87 molecules. Starting from weakly bound Feshbach molecules formed via …

Laser cooling and trapping are central to modern atomic physics. The most used technique
in cold-atom physics is the magneto-optical trap (MOT), which combines laser cooling with a …

In recent years, an increasingly large variety of molecular species have been successfully
cooled to low energies, and innovative techniques continue to emerge to reach ever more …

We report three-dimensional trapping of an oxide molecule (YO), using a radio-frequency
magneto-optical trap (MOT). The total number of molecules trapped is∼ 1.5× 10 4, with a …

We report on the creation of bosonic NaCs molecules in their absolute rovibrational ground
state via stimulated Raman adiabatic passage. We create ultracold gases with up to 22 000 …

Compared to atoms, molecules possess additional degrees of freedom that can be exploited
in fundamental tests, ultracold chemistry, and engineering new quantum phases in many …

Ultracold molecules offer unprecedented opportunities for the controlled interrogation of
molecular events, including chemical reactivity in the ultimate quantum regime. The …
