摘要
By using a simple spectral shaping technique, optical pumping with laser fields has allowed us to manipulate, on demand, the rotational and vibrational population of di-atomic molecules. We review this method developed first on cold Cs-2 then on ions and discuss its extension to other molecular species as well as its feasibility on a molecular beam. This paves the way to the production of brighter molecular beams and thus a new method of producing cold molecular cloud. We finally present some ideas based on Sisyphus cooling with expected results on neutral as well as ionic molecules.
