</span><span style="letter-spacing: normal; font-family: CMR10, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Laser cooling and trapping of atoms have revolutionized atomic physics with the realization to cool and trap atoms into
the ultra-cold regime. This has led the precision of spectroscopy on atoms to an unprecedented level, which make cold atoms not only platforms to search for new physics and test fundamental laws of nature, but also ultra-precise tools to measure fundamental
physical quantities such as time and magnetic fields. Cooling and trapping molecules into the cold and ultra-cold regime foresee similar revolutions. The rich internal energy structure and large permanent electric dipole moments of molecules enable a variety
of applications that beyond the realm of cold atoms, including searches for the electron electric dipole moment, studies of ultra-cold chemistry, and realizations of strongly interacting quantum many-body systems. However, the complex energy structure of molecules
also render them difficult to laser cool and trap, especially at high densities. In this thesis, we present preliminary progress on pursuing laser cooling and trapping of a new species, aluminum monochloride(AlCl). The highly diagonal Franck-Condon factors(FCFs)
and high scattering rate with large single photon recoil velocities owning to a cycling transition at DUV wavelength range make it a favorable candidate. We present our absorption spectroscopy on the
