Sticky collisions of ultracold RbCs molecules (2019)
Journal Article

Understanding and controlling collisions is crucial to the burgeoning field of ultracold molecules. All experiments so far have observed fast loss of molecules from the trap. However, the dominant mechanism for collisional loss is not well understood... Read More about Sticky collisions of ultracold RbCs molecules.

Radiation trapping in a dense cold Rydberg gas (2017)
Journal Article

Cold atomic gases resonantly excited to Rydberg states can exhibit strong optical nonlinearity at the single-photon level. We observe that in such samples radiation trapping leads to an additional mechanism for Rydberg excitation. Conversely we demon... Read More about Radiation trapping in a dense cold Rydberg gas.

Tunable cw UV laser with <35 kHz absolute frequency instability for precision spectroscopy of Sr Rydberg states (2016)
Journal Article

We present a solid-state laser system that generates over 200 mW of continuous-wave, narrowband light, tunable from 316.3 nm – 317.7 nm and 318.0 nm – 319.3 nm. The laser is based on commercially available fiber amplifiers and optical frequency doubl...
