Ultracold 88Sr2 molecules in the absolute ground state

We report efficient all-optical creation of an ultracold gas of alkaline-earth-metal dimers, ^88 Sr _2 , in their absolute ground state. Starting with weakly bound singlet molecules formed by narrow-line photoassociation in an optical lattice, followed by stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP)...
