A new possibility of laser cooling of Calcium atoms using a two-photon transition is analyzed We investigate the possibility of Doppler cooling of Calcium using its two-photon (4s2) 1S0- (4s5s) 1S0 transition, with excitation in near resonance with the (4s4p) 1P1 level. The two-photon absorption of laser beams at 423 and 1034 nm greatly increases the two-photon rate, allowing an effective transfer of momentum. The experimental implementation of this technique is discussed and we show that two-photon cooling can be used to achieve a temperature limit of about 1/7 of the one-photon Doppler limit reached in a conventional MOT
