Electric Trapping and Cooling of Polyatomic Molecules

Martin Zeppenfeld

The present thesis focuses on developing a general method to trap and to cool molecules to ultralow temperatures (<1mK). The implemented opto-electrical Sisyphus cooling uses state-dependent potentials combined with optical pumping to achieve this goal. In a first experiment, a temperature reduction by a factor of 5 was achieved. A key part of the experiment is the realization of a novel design for an electric trap for molecules. This allowed molecules to be trapped with a lifetime of almost 30s.The present thesis focuses on developing a general method to trap and to cool molecules to ultralow temperatures (<1mK).
