With lasers far different then the laser types you are thinking about they can control the movement of atoms and electons. Slowing them to the point where the substance can go to a fraction of a degree above 0K.

But they can only do that on atomic particles currently. Nothing as big as a molecule has been done.

Also at close to 0K a CPU would stop functioning as the semi conductor turns into an insulator at those temps.
