Abstract
We report on nondestructive imaging of optically trapped calcium monofluoride molecules using in situ Λ-enhanced gray molasses cooling. 200 times more fluorescence is obtained compared to destructive on-resonance imaging, and the trapped molecules remain at a temperature of 20 μK. The achieved number of scattered photons makes possible nondestructive single-shot detection of single molecules with high fidelity.

Abstract
Atoms can be accumulated by velocity-selective coherent population trapping (VSCPT) in dark states of very highly monovelocity, resulting in very narrow distributions. The optical pumping process that permits the population accumulation proceeds by random walk in momentum space and is of limited efficiency. Several authors have predicted that damping forces can enhance VSCPT in carefully chosen laser fields. We present corroboration of this idea with measurements showing increased efficiency for VSCPT.
