Abstract :Optically transporting and splitting cold molecules are proposed by spatially pure phase modulating a Gaussian laser beam with a spatial liquid crystal modulator (SLM). Taking the experimentally available cold KRb molecules (350 nK) as an example, the computations show that the trapping depth is about 460 μ K and the trap can be split and transported up to 1 cm when a commercially available SLM is employed.
