Controlling the motion of hydrogen molecules
The deflection and deceleration of neutral hydrogen molecules in the presence of an inhomogeneous electric field is demonstrated. The molecules are laser-excited in a molecular beam to selected Rydberg-Stark states in the field of an electric dipole for a fixed period, and their trajectories are mon...
