Photodissociation and ultracold chemistry. 330 $aThis thesis unites the fields of optical atomic clocks and ultracold molecular science, laying the foundation for optical molecular measurements of unprecedented precision. Building upon optical manipulation techniques developed by the atomic clock community, this work delves into attaining surgical control of molecular quantum states. The thesis develops two experimental observables that one can measure with optical-lattice-trapped ultracold molecules: extremely narrow optical spectra, and angular distributions of photofragments that are ejected when the diatomic molecules are dissociated by laser light pulses. The former allows molecular spectroscopy approaching the level of atomic clocks, leading into molecular metrology and tests of fundamental physics. The latter opens the field of ultracold chemistry through observation of quantum effects such as matter-wave interference of photofragments and tunneling through reaction barriers. The thesis also describes a discovery of a new method of thermometry that can be used near absolute zero temperatures for particles lacking cycling transitions, solving a long-standing experimental problem in atomic and molecular physics. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aQuantum optics 606 $aLow temperature physics 606 $aLow temperatures 606 $aPhysical measurements 606 $aMeasurement    606 $aAtomic structure   606 $aMolecular structure  606 $aSpectroscopy 606 $aMicroscopy 606 $aQuantum Optics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24050 606 $aLow Temperature Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25130 606 $aMeasurement Science and Instrumentation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31040 606 $aAtomic/Molecular Structure and Spectra$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24017 606 $aSpectroscopy and Microscopy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31090 615 0$aQuantum optics. 615 0$aLow temperature physics. 615 0$aLow temperatures. 615 0$aPhysical measurements. 615 0$aMeasurement   . 615 0$aAtomic structure  . 615 0$aMolecular structure . 615 0$aSpectroscopy. 615 0$aMicroscopy. 615 14$aQuantum Optics. 615 24$aLow Temperature Physics. 615 24$aMeasurement Science and Instrumentation. 615 24$aAtomic/Molecular Structure and Spectra. 615 24$aSpectroscopy and Microscopy. 676 $a543.5 700 $aMcDonald$b Mickey$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0835276 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300557003321 996 $aHigh Precision Optical Spectroscopy and Quantum State Selected Photodissociation of Ultracold 88Sr2 Molecules in an Optical Lattice$91866743 997 $aUNINA
