Abstract

High-resolution photoassociation spectroscopy is reported using a modulation spectroscopy technology in a cesium atomic magneto-optical trap. The two lowest vibrational levels have been experimentally observed which have been theo- retically predicted in [Phys. Rev. A 75 052501 （2007）]. A new potential curve is obtained by using the Rydberg-Klein-Ress method with a well depth of -82,384 ＋ 0,026 cm-1, which is deeper than the result of previous experiment （-77.909 cm-1） and the theoretical prediction （-81.6445 cm- l ）.

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.

The laser-intensity dependence of the photoassociation spectrum of the ultracold Cs2（6S1/2 ＋ 6P1/2） 0＋ long-range molecular state

金丽, 冯国胜, Jie Ma +4 more

The high-resolution photoassociation spectrum of the ultracold cesium molecular 0_u~+ state below the 6S 1/2 + 6P 1/2 limit is presented in this paper. The saturation of the photoassociation scattering probability is observed from the dependence of the trap-loss probability on the photoassociation laser intensity. The corresponding resonant line width is also demonstrated to increase linearly with increasing photoassociation laser intensity. Our experimental data have good consistency with the theoretical saturation model of Bohn and Julienne Bohn J L and Julienne P S 1999 Phys. Rev. A 60 1].

Spectroscopy of Quasibound and Long-Range Rydberg States of Ultracold 85Rb2

Ryan Carollo

Ultracold atomic physics offers an experimentalist the opportunity to perform sensitive tests and measurements that are not possible at higher temperatures. In this case it allows for access to molecular states, through photoassociation, that are inaccessible to conventional techniques. We use photoassociation to measure quasi-bound levels of the 2 1Σg+ state of 85Rb2 . With these data, we examine a coupling between the short-range Hund’s case (c) 2 (0g+ ) component and the long-range 2 (1g ) state, which corresponds to the 1 1Πg state. A second experiment studies the mechanism of short-range photoassociation and finds our simple model to have strong predictive power. In a third experiment, we photoassociatively form vibrationally excited a 3 Σu+ molecules. We then excite these molecules using a frequency-doubled pulse-amplified CW laser to create low-n long-range Rydberg states of 85Rb2 . Autoionization and ion detection of these states gives high-resolution spectra, which are compared to theoretical potential curves.

Reexamination of the 0g− pure long-range state of Cs2 : Prediction of missing levels in the photoassociation spectrum

Nadia Bouloufa-Maafa, A. Crubellier, Olivier Dulieu

A reexamination of the photoassociation spectrum of the external well of the ${0}_{g}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ potential of ${\mathrm{Cs}}_{2}$ converging to the $(6{s}_{1∕2}+6{p}_{3∕2})$ limit is performed, in order to resolve inconsistencies arising from a previously published paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 1408 (2000)]. We use the same analytical description of the potential as in an other previous analysis [Phys. Rev. A 66, 052506 (2002)], but we make a shift of 2 in the assignment of the observed vibrational lines. The agreement between experimental and calculated energy positions is improved and the intensities calculated using the new potential account well for all available data. The fitting procedure reveals a strong interdependence of the parameters of the model, which limits the accuracy of the determination of the radiative lifetimes of the $6{p}^{2}{P}_{1∕2}$ and $6{p}^{2}{P}_{3∕2}$ atomic levels. Only a more precise experimental study could allow one to improve the determination of these lifetime values.

Photoassociation spectroscopy of ultracold Cs below the 6P1/2 limit

Marin Pichler, Hongmin Chen, William C. Stwalley

We have performed high precision photoassociation spectroscopy of ultracold cesium gas. Using trap-loss fluorescence detection and controlling the background cesium pressure we were able to photoassociate atoms into excited states of ultracold molecules with large detunings up to 56 cm(-1) below the Cs(6S(1/2)) + Cs(6P(1/2)) atomic asymptote. Vibrational progressions are assigned to 0(g)(-), 0(u)(+), and 1(g) long-range states. By fitting the spectral data to the LeRoy-Bernstein expression, the effective coefficients of the leading long-range interactions and the vibrational quantum number at dissociation are obtained. In addition we have observed spectral perturbations between states of the same symmetry belonging to different asymptotes (6P(1/2) and 6P(3/2)). The perturbations are manifested through irregular vibrational level spacings and are especially pronounced in the 0(u)(+) symmetry. Many observed rotational levels indicate d- and higher partial wave contributions to the photoassociation cross section in the presence of trapping laser light, while spectral regions with only weak features suggest nodes in the lower state wave functions corresponding to the two ground state atoms asymptote.
