title = "Superconducting microwave cavity towards controlling the motion of polar molecules",
abstract = "We propose the use of superconducting microwave cavities for the focusing and deceleration of cold polar molecular beams. A superconducting cavity with a high quality factor produces a large ac Stark shift in polar molecules, which allow us to efficiently control molecular motion. Our discussion is based on the experimental characterization of a prototype cavity: a lead-tin-coated cylindrical copper cavity, which has a quality factor of 106 and tolerates several watts of input power. Such a microwave device provides a powerful way to control molecules not only in low-field-seeking states, but also in high-fieldseeking states such as the ground rotational state.",
