(a) Schematic diagram of the two charged disks used for efficient loading of cold molecules. (b) The electric field profiles in the y direction and the contour distributions in the yz plane for the loading (left column, when U 1 = 30 kV, U 2 = 50 kV) and trapping (right column, when U 1 = U 2 = 50 kV) of cold polar molecules.
