Abstract

In this paper, high-resolution vib-rotational spectrum of ultracold cesium molecule in its first excited state of 6S1/2+6P3/2 with dissociation limit 0g- long range state is obtained by cold atom fluorescence frequency modulation method. The rotation constants of different vibration energy levels of cesium molecule for vibrational quantum number from 0 to 51 are achieved. The results are in good agreement with the theoretical results given by Daniel.

Precise measurements of rotational constants of the pure long range state of ultracold cesium molecules

Jie Ma, Peng Chen, Wenliang Liu +5 more

The high resolution spectrum of ultracold Cs2 pure long range 0g- state is experimentally measured using modulated trap loss spectroscopic technology. Based on Double photoassociation spectroscopic technique, precise frequency difference reference signals are constructed to accurately calibrate the resonant frequency intervals of the ro-vibrational levels, thus obtaining the relationship between the frequency interval of rotational level and the rotational quantum number. The experimental data are fitted by the non-rigid rotational model, and the molecular rotational constants corresponding to different vibrational levels in the ultracold Cs2 pure long range 0g- state are acquired. The experimental results demonstrate a linear decrease of the rotational constant with the increase of vibrational quantum number, and the linear decreasing rate is -0.41m MHz0.01 MHz.

[Experimental study of ultralow frequency modulation photoassociation spectrum].

In the present paper, ultracold cesium atoms were obtained in magnetic optical trap using the laser cooling technology. The number of ultracold atoms is 10(7). The temperature of ultracold atoms is about 200 μK and the diameter of the ultracold atoms cloud is about 400 μm. The ultracold cesium molecules of excited states were formed using the photoassociation of ultracold atoms. The resolution of vib-rotational spectrum was studied under different scan rates of photossociation laser in the experiment. The resolution of vib-rotational spectrum becomes high when the scan rate of photossociation laser becomes slow. The cold atoms fluorescence was obtained using the high sensitive avalanche photo detector and the high resolution vib-rotational spectrum of ultracold cesium molecule in its first excited state of with dissociation limit long range state was obtained. The ultracold ground molecule was formed by controlled Raman photoassociation and the photoassociation laser must be locked to atom-molecular hyperfine transitions. The ultracold atoms photoassociation spectrum was modulated using ultra-low frequency. The first-order differential signal was optimized by changing modulation amplitude and modulation frequency. It provides a feedback signal to correct error of the laser. The laser frequency satisfies experimental requirement to form ultracold ground molecules using the controlled Raman photoassociation. This work is important for studies of ultracold atoms and molecules in confined space.

High sensitive photoassociation spectroscopy investigation on 0u+ (6P3/2) long-range state of ultracold cesium molecules

Jie Ma, Wang Xiao-Feng, Xin Tong-Yu +5 more

Photoassociation spectroscopy with high resolution for 0u+(6P3/2) long-range state of ultracold cesium molecules has been measured experimentally using the modulated trap loss fluorescence spectroscopy technology. The spectral range has been extended over 60 cm-1 below the 6S1/2 + 6P3/2 dissociation limit as compared with other groups. twenty-five new observations of the Cs2 0u+ in long-range state are reported. The vibrational binding energies of these states are analyzed by using the LeRoy-Bernstein formula. The long-range parameter C3 in molecular 0u+(6P3/2) state is derived for 16.1030.010, and the corresponding molecular potential curve is depicted.

High resolution photoassociation spectra of an ultracold Cs2long-range 0u+(6S1/2+ 6P1/2) state

Peng Chen, Yuqing Li, Yichi Zhang +4 more

In this paper, ultracold cesium molecules are formed through photoassociation technology, which is carried out in a magneto-optical trap. High resolution photoassociaion spectra with the rotational progressions up to J = 7 are obtained. Three rovibrational levels of the long-range 0 u + state of Cs 2 below the (6S 1/2 + 6P 1/2 ) dissociation limit are specifically investigated. By fitting their binding energy intervals to the non-rigid rotational model, the rotational constant of the long-range 0 u + state is determined. A proportional dependence of the value of the rotational constant on the vibrational quantum number is demonstrated.

Experimental Determination of the Rotational Constants of High-Lying Vibrational Levels of Ultracold Cs2 in the 0g– Purely Long-Range State

Jie Ma, Jizhou Wu, Gang Chen +6 more

We report on a quantitative experimental determination of the rotational constants for the high-lying vibrational levels of the ultracold pure long-range Cesium molecules formed via photoassociation. The scheme relies on a precise reference of frequency difference in a double photoassociation spectroscopy, which is induced by two laser beams based on an acoustic-optical modulator. The rotational constants are obtained by fitting a nonrigid rotor model into the frequency intervals of the neighboring rotational levels deduced from the reference.

Experimental study of ultracold cesium atom photoassociation spectrum using an amplitude modulation technique

Wang Li-Rong, Jie Ma, Linjie Zhang +3 more

A high resolution photoassociation spectrum of ultracold cesium atoms is reported in this paper. A photoassociation laser with its frequency red detuned below 6S1/2+6P3/2 dissociation limit acts on the cold cesium atoms in magnetic optical trap and the excited ultracold molecules generated in the photoassociation process are observed. In order to obtain a high signal-to-noise ratio, the trapping laser is amplitude modulated using acousto-optic modulator and the fluorescence signal is demodulated by lock-in technique. The results are discussed using the density matrix equations.
