ShareObservation of laser-induced fluorescent cooling of a solid.

Type of article: Article
Summary
The authors report the experimental realization of net cooling of a solid with radiation. The cooling efficiencies achieved (up to 2%) are more than 10,000 times those observed in Doppler cooling of gases. By pumping a fluorescent cooling element with a high-efficiency diode laser, it may be possible to construct a compact, solid-state optical cryocooler.
