In our experiment, we create a translationally ultracold, dense quantum gas of molecules bound by more than 1000 wave numbers in the electronic ground state. Specifically, we stimulate with 80% efficiency, a two-photon transfer of molecules associated on a Feshbach resonance from a Bose-Einstein condensate of cesium atoms. In the process, the initial loose, long-range electrostatic bond of the Feshbach molecule is coherently transformed into a tight chemical bond. We demonstrate coherence of the transfer in a Ramsey-type experiment and show that the molecular sample is not heated during the transfer. Our results show that the preparation of a quantum gas of molecules in specific rovibrational states is possible and that the creation of a Bose-Einstein condensate of molecules in their rovibronic ground state is within reach."}],"date_created":"2018-12-11T11:49:49Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","oa":1,"oa_version":"None","publisher":"American Association for the Advancement of Science","status":"public","title":"Quantum gas of deeply bound ground state molecules"}
