Optimizing the density of Stark decelerated radicals at low final velocities: a tutorial review

Abstract The Stark deceleration technique can produce molecular beams with very low velocities. In order to maximize the density of decelerated molecules, experimental parameters such as the velocity, the velocity spread and the spatial spread of the initial molecular beam as well as the operation c...
