Millimeter wave control over neutral molecules in a Stark decelerator — •Mark Abel1, Gabriele Santambrogio1, Samuel Meek1, Liam Duffy2, and Gerard Meijer11Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, 4-6 Faradayweg, 14195 Berlin — 2Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Greensboro NC, 27402, USA

Stark- and Zeeman-based decelerators have shown much promise as a route to the full quantum state control of cold neutral molecular samples. Here, we combine Stark deceleration and trapping using a microstructured electrode array with internal state control using a coherent millimeter-wave source. The millimeter wave radiation is coupled to the molecules only microns from the trap electrodes, switching their quantum state. Such on-chip manipulations constitute an important step for future chip-based molecular devices.
