Single colour three photon resonant ionization (2 + 1) is observed in atomic potassium vapour in a heat pipe oven using an
excimer laser pumped dye laser. Using wavelengths between 570 nm and 603 nm various2S and2D Rydberg states are populated by two photon excitation. Third photon of the same wavelength ionizes the atoms. Rydberg states
up ton ⋍ 50 are observed. Electric field as low as 1 V/cm causes extensive Stark mixing of the states. This results in progressively
higher three photon ionization signals via the perturbed2P and2F Rydberg states. The three photon ionization process is studied using both linearly and circularly polarized incident light.
The experiment shows qualitatively that the2P Rydberg states are perturbed primarily by the2D states in the prescence of an external electric field and to a much smaller extent by2S states. This is also explained theoretically by calculating the Stark mixing coefficients under the Bates and Daamgard (1949)
approximation. Implication for a similar effect in other alkali elements is discussed. 相似文献

This paper examines the multiphoton ionization of the ground state of the hydrogen atom in the field of a circularly polarized
intense electromagnetic wave. To describe the states of photoelectrons, quasiclassical wave functions are introduced that
partially allow for the effect of an intense electromagnetic wave and that of the Coulomb potential. Expressions are derived
for the angular and energy distributions of photoelectrons with energies much lower than the ionization potential of an unperturbed
atom. It is found that, due to allowance for the Coulomb potential in the wave function of the final electron states, the
transition probability near the ionization threshold tends to a finite value. In addition, the well-known selection rules
for multiphoton transitions in a circularly polarized electromagnetic field are derived in a natural way. Finally, the results
are compared with those obtained in the Keldysh-Faisal-Reiss approximation.

We have measured the angular distribution of valence-shell photoelectrons excited by circularly polarized light from fixed-in-space N2O molecules, near to and on top of resonances due to Rydberg states embedded in the ionization continuum. The sign of the circular dichroism for ionization into the N2O+ (B2Pi, (1pi)-1) state is reversed on top of the lowest dominant resonances. Measured angular distributions are well predicted by state-of-the-art multichannel configuration interaction calculations. The change in sign of the circular dichroism at the peak of the resonance is the result of a rapid change in the phases of resonant dipole matrix elements by a factor of 2pi as the energy is scanned across the resonance. 相似文献

Double ionization of helium interacting with elliptically polarized laser pulse by classical ensemble simulations 下载免费PDF全文
This paper uses the classical ensemble method to study the
double ionization of a 2-dimensional (2D) model helium atom
interacting with an elliptically polarized laser pulse. The classical
ensemble calculation demonstrates that the ratio of double to single
ionization decreases with the increasing ellipticity of the driving
field. The classical scenario shows that there are hardly any e--e
recollisions with the circularly polarized laser pulse. The double
ionization probability is studied for linearly and circularly
polarized laser pulses. The classical numerical results are
consistent with the semiclassical rescattering mechanism and in
agreement with the experimental results and the quantum calculations
qualitatively. 相似文献

By numerically solving the three-dimensional time-dependent Schrödinger equation, we have invest-tigated multiphoton ionization of hydrogen atom in the two-color circularly polarized (TCCP) laser fields consisting of a strong 400 nm and a much weaker 800 nm pulses. Due to the presence of perturb-bative 800 nm laser pulse, sideband peaks emerge between the above-threshold ionization rings in the photoelectron momentum distributions. Our numerical results show that the sideband peaks exhibit one-lobe structure in the co-rotating TCCP laser fields, while it displays the three-lobe structure in the counter-rotating TCCP laser fields. Moreover, the photoelectron yield of sidebands in the co-rotating TCCP fields is much higher than those of the counter-rotating TCCP fields. These phenomena could be well explained from the perspective of the photon-absorption channels via the selection rules. In-terestingly, an obvious phase shift between the sidebands of different orders from the co-rotating and counter-rotating TCCP fields is observed. This shift indicates the helicity-dependent time delay in the one-photon continuum-continuum transition process. 相似文献

We report observation of the complete polarization switching sequence for a gas of atoms with a J = to J = transition, exposed to resonant or near resonant, linearly polarized laser excitation in an optical cavity. The sequence is from linearly polarized cavity output at low input power to predominantly circularly polarized output at intermediate power and back to linearly polarized output at high input power. The switching is abrupt, exhibits hysteresis and, when hyperfine optical pumping effects are minimized, is phenomenologically in accord with predictions from theory. 相似文献

The balance of the linear photon momentum in multiphoton ionization is studied experimentally. In the experiment argon and neon atoms are singly ionized by circularly polarized laser pulses with a wavelength of 800 and 1400 nm in the intensity range of 10(14)-10(15) W/cm2. The photoelectrons are measured using velocity map imaging. We find that the photoelectrons carry linear momentum corresponding to the photons absorbed above the field free ionization threshold. Our finding has implications for concurrent models of the generation of terahertz radiation in filaments. 相似文献

Multiphoton ionization of the hydrogen atom exposed to circularly or linearly polarized laser pulses 下载免费PDF全文
This paper studies the multiphoton ionization of the
hydrogen atom exposed to the linearly or circularly polarized laser
pulses by solving the time-dependent Schr?dinger equation. It
finds that the ratio of the ionization probabilities by linearly and
circularly polarized laser pulses varies with the numbers of
absorbing photons. With the same laser intensity, the circularly
polarized laser pulse favors to ionize the atom with more ease than the
linearly polarized laser pulse if only two or three photons are
necessary to be absorbed. For the higher order multiphoton
ionization, the linearly polarized laser pulse has the advantage
over circularly polarized laser pulse to ionize the atom. 相似文献

Wakefield generation by a femtosecond laser pulse is described in the frame of the slowly varying amplitudes approximation. The amplitude of the wakefield A, is studied as a function of laser pulse and background gas parameters, and is compared with well-known results for preformed, completely ionized plasma Ap,i. It is found that the ionization processes can increase Ap as compared to Ap,i at comparatively high laser peak intensities. It is shown that the increase of the wakefield amplitude due to gas ionization is more pronounced for circularly polarized laser pulses than for linearly polarized laser pulses. The strongest enhancement of Ap in comparison with Ap,i takes place for longer laser pulses with a duration in excess of the plasma wave period when the resonant conditions for ponderomotive excitation of the wakefield are not matched. Thus, ionization processes can expand the region of parameters for efficient generation of the laser wakefields 相似文献

The process of resonant multiphoton ionization of a hydrogen atom in the ground 1s state is studied by direct numerical integration of the nonstationary Schrödinger equation for a quantum system in an electromagnetic field. The dependence of photoionization probability on the radiation intensity is found to be nonmonotonic. It is established that the minima of ionization correspond to multiphoton resonances between the ground state and one of the excited (Rydberg) atomic states perturbed by the laser field. It is shown that ionization is suppressed due to rearrangement of Rydberg states in a strong electromagnetic field and is accompanied by efficient Raman Λ transitions, which connect a set of closely lying Rydberg states via the continuum. 相似文献

Within the framework of the rotating wave approximation the elastic scattering of electrons by metastable 2s state of hydrogen
atoms is studied in the presence of a resonant laser field. The frequency of the circularly polarized laser field is chosen
to match the 2s-3p transition frequency in the hydrogen atom. Variation of the cross section with laser intensity and with incident electron energy (50-150 eV) is investigated.

We have measured momentum spectra and branching ratios of charged ionic fragments emitted in the double ionization of D2 (and H2) molecules by short intense laser pulses. We find high-energy coincident D+ (and H+) ion pairs with kinetic energy releases between 8 and 19 eV which appear for linearly polarized light but are absent for circularly polarized light. The dependence on the polarization, the energy distributions of the ions, and the dependence on laser intensity of yield ratios lead us to interpret these ion pairs as due to a rescattering mechanism for the double ionization. A quantitative model is presented which accounts for the major features of the data. 相似文献

Effect of Time-Dependent Ionization on Propagation of a Few-Cycle Circularly Polarized Laser Pulse in Two-Level Medium 下载免费PDF全文
Influence of multiphoton ionization on the propagation and spectrum of few-cycle circularly (elliptically) polarized laser pulses in an open two-level medium (two-level plus continuum model) is investigated based on the conventional two-level model proposed by Slavcheva and Hess (Phys. Rev. A 72 (2005) 053804), and the propagation dynamics of an arbitrary elliptically polarized laser pulse is reduced into that of right and left circularly polarized laser pulses. When the laser intensity is high enough to cause ionization, there are significant impacts of ionization on the pulse reshaping and on the higher order spectral components, and the impacts for the open two-level model are different from those for the dosed two-level model. 相似文献

We review how moderately intense laser fields offer an approach to alignment of molecules [1]. In particular, molecules can be aligned along a given space fixed axis, forced to a plane, or their rotations about all three possible axes can be eliminated by choosing a linearly polarized, a circularly polarized, or an elliptically polarized alignment field, respectively. We show how molecules in the gas phase can be aligned by turning on the laser field either slowly (a few nanoseconds) or fast (a few picoseconds) with respect to the rotational period of the molecules. The role of the intensity of the laser field and the rotational temperature of the molecules is discussed. Before concluding we describe how aligned molecules enables control and selectivity in the interaction between polarized light and molecules.Received: 15 November 2002, Published online: 18 March 2003PACS:

Theoretical results for high-harmonic generation by a two-color elliptically polarized laser field are presented. Special emphasis is placed on coherent radiation near 13 nm in connection with the development of extreme-ultraviolet lithography. Linearly polarized radiation at this wavelength can be obtained with a linearly polarized bichromatic laser field, whereas circularly polarized radiation can be generated with a bichromatic circularly polarized field with counterrotating coplanar components. In both cases the harmonic emission efficiencies at the saturation intensity are more than 1 order of magnitude larger than for harmonic generation with a monochromatic linearly polarized field. 相似文献

We report the first experimental demonstration of a Ni-like optical-field ionization collisional soft x-ray laser. The amplifying medium is generated by focusing a circularly polarized 760 mJ, 30 fs, 10-Hz Ti:sapphire laser beam in a few mm cell filled with krypton. We have measured a gain coefficient of 78 cm(-1) on the 3d(9)4d 1S0-3d(9)4p(1)P1 transition at 32.8 nm, which is here amplified for the first time. This radiation source represents the shortest wavelength optical-field ionization collisional soft x-ray laser ever produced. The influence of the gas pressure and the pumping energy on the lasing output are also presented. 相似文献

Molecular above-threshold ionization by a circularly polarized laser field is investigated. Our theoretical approach is based on the modified molecular strong-field approximation. Various gauge-dependent versions of this approximation are considered and homonuclear and heteronuclear molecular species characterized by different symmetries are used as targets. As in the case of a linearly polarized field, the imprint of the molecular multicenter structure can be observed in the above-threshold ionization spectra. It manifests itself as minima in the rate of the ionized electrons as a function of their energy. The locations of these minima are strongly influenced by the symmetry of the corresponding highest occupied molecular orbital as well as the internuclear separation. Analyzing the interference structures of the electron spectra one can obtain information about the molecular symmetry. 相似文献
