Shielding collisions of ultracold CaF molecules with static electric fields (2023)
Journal Article
Mukherjee, B., Frye, M. D., Le Sueur, C. R., Tarbutt, M. R., & Hutson, J. M. (2023). Shielding collisions of ultracold CaF molecules with static electric fields. Physical Review Research, 5(3), Article 033097. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevresearch.5.033097

We study collisions of ultracold CaF molecules in strong static electric fields. These fields allow the creation of long-range barriers in the interaction potential, effectively preventing the molecules from reaching the short-range region where inel...

Formation of Ultracold Molecules by Merging Optical Tweezers (2023)
Journal Article
Ruttley, D. K., Guttridge, A., Spence, S., Bird, R. C., Le Sueur, C. R., Hutson, J. M., & Cornish, S. L. (2023). Formation of Ultracold Molecules by Merging Optical Tweezers. Physical Review Letters, 130(22), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.130.223401

We demonstrate the formation of a single RbCs molecule during the merging of two optical tweezers, one containing a single Rb atom and the other a single Cs atom. Both atoms are initially predominantly in the motional ground states of their respectiv... Read More about Formation of Ultracold Molecules by Merging Optical Tweezers.
