Description

We describe a cryogenic beam of 7Li2 dimers from sublimation of a neon matrix where Li atoms have been implanted via laser ablation of solid precursors of LiH. Laser absorption spectroscopy measured: T∼7 K, Trot ∼ 6K, drift velocity of 130 ms-1 with molecular density of 109 cm-3. The formation of molecules in a matrix offers new possibilities. (paper)
