Laser cooling and trapping using Laguerre-Gaussian laser beams.
(2003)
Laser cooling and trapping has led to a revolution in Atomic and Molecular physics. Optical traps created with blue-detuned laser beams are desired for numerous studies. One method of creating such a trap is with ...
Cold nitric oxide molecules from a Stark guide.
(2005)
One possible technique is the use of a modified straight Stark guide to filter the slow moving molecules from a thermal source. Here I present such a technique and the design of the necessary apparatus. Furthermore, I ...
