Reflection of OH molecules from magnetic mirrors
2008
We have reflected a Stark-decelerated beam of OH molecules under normal incidence from mirrors consisting of permanent magnets. Two different types of magnetic mirrors have been demonstrated. A long-range flat mirror made from a large disc magnet has been used to spatially focus the reflected beam in the longitudinal direction ('bunching'). A short-range curved mirror composed of an array of small cube magnets allows for transverse focusing of the reflected beam.
