Molecular Asymmetry and Optical Cycling: Laser Cooling Asymmetric Top Molecules
We present a practical roadmap to achieve optical cycling and laser cooling of asymmetric top molecules (ATMs). Our theoretical analysis describes how reduced molecular symmetry, as compared to diatomic and symmetric nonlinear molecules, plays a role in photon scattering. We present methods to circu...
