Laser cooling and trapping of yttrium monoxide molecules in an optical lattice have been achieved, with gray molasses cooling proving to be efficient for achieving a low molecule temperature of 6.1(6) mu K. A trapped sample of 1200 molecules with a high spatial and phase-space density has been produced, with further cooling to 1.0(2) mu K reported, making it 20 times colder than previously achieved for laser-cooled molecules in a trap.
We report laser cooling and trapping of yttrium monoxide molecules in an optical lattice. We show that gray molasses cooling remains exceptionally efficient for yttrium monoxide molecules inside the lattice with a molecule temperature as low as 6.1(6) mu K. This approach has produced a trapped sample of 1200 molecules, with a peak spatial density of similar to 1.2 x 10(10) cm(-3), and a peak phase-space density of similar to 3.1 x 10(-6). By ramping down the lattice depth, we cool the molecules further to 1.0(2) mu K, 20 times colder than previously reported for laser-cooled molecules in a trap.
