Many nonlinear quantum phenomena of intense laser-atom
physics can be intuitively explained with the concept of trajectory.
In this paper, Bohmian mechanics (BM) is introduced to study a
multiphoton process of atoms interacting with the intense laser
field: above-threshold ionization (ATI). Quantum trajectory of an
atomic electron in intense laser field is obtained from the
Bohm-Newton equation first and then the energy of the photoelectron
is gained from its trajectory. With energies of an ensemble of
photoelectrons, we obtain the ATI spectrum which is consistent with
the previous theoretical and experimental results. Comparing BM with
the classical trajectory Monte-Carlo method, we conclude that
quantum potential may play a key role to reproduce the spectrum of
ATI. Our work may present a new approach to understanding quantum
phenomena in intense laser-atom physics with the image of
trajectory. 相似文献

Experimental Research of Spontaneous Evolution from Ultracold Rydberg Atoms to Plasma 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
The spontaneous evolution from ultracold Rydberg atoms to plasma is investigated in a caesium MOT by using the method of field ionization. The plasma transferred from atoms in different Rydberg states (n = 22-32) are obtained experimentally. Dependence of the threshold time of evolving to plasma and the threshold number of initial Rydberg atoms on the principal quantum number of initial Rydberg states is studied. The experimental results are in agreement with hot-cold Rydberg-Rydberg atom collision ionization theory. 相似文献

双原子分子多光子电离强场效应的含时波包动力学研究 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
强激光非线性条件下分子的多光子电离过程呈现出较为明显的强场效应.由于这种效应不能用传统的量子微扰论来处理,“缀饰态”模型方法提供了物理图象清晰的处理光与物质相互作用的方案.本文基于含时波包动力学的基本理论,将激光场看作经典场,利用“缀饰态”模型研究了强场下双原子分子(NO、RbI等)的多光子电离过程.研究表明,激光场的强度、泵浦-探测脉冲延迟时间等对多光子电离光电子能谱的形状有着重要的影响,而这种影响是由光诱导势引起的.另外,在研究具有两个连续态的RbI体系时,自电离现象的发生也与势能面的交叉密切相关,并受外场强度的影响.本文计算模拟外场中分子的光电子能谱时所得到的强场效应对理解和实现原子分子过程的激光操控具有重要的意义. 相似文献

We investigate the carrier-envelope phase dependence of the total ionization yield for single and double ionization of xenon.
We compare our results to theoretical calculations and to the phase dependent asymmetry in photoelectron emission. We observe
that the phase dependence of the photoion yields, regardless if single or double ionization, is at least 2-3 orders of magnitude
below the photoelectron emission signal. We conclude that total photoionization yields are only very weakly dependent on the
carrier envelope phase, and that they are not a useful means for measurement of the phase. It seems possible that the broad
bandwidth of few-cycle pulses facilitates multiphoton ionization, which leads to a randomization of strong field ionization
phase dependencies. Besides, we observe that the spatial asymmetry in photoelectron emission appears to be useful as an indicator
for the laser pulse duration in the few cycle regime. 相似文献

We present a theoretical study of the ionization of hydrogen atoms as a result of the interaction with an ultrashort external electric field. Doubly-differential momentum distributions and angular momentum distributions of ejected electrons calculated in the framework of the Coulomb-Volkov and strong field approximations, as well as classical calculations are compared with the exact solution of the time dependent Schr ödinger equation. We show that in the impulsive limit, the Coulomb-Volkov distorted wave theory reproduces the exact solution. The validity of the strong field approximation is probed both classically and quantum mechanically. We found that classical mechanics describes the proper quantum momentum distributions of the ejected electrons right after a sudden momentum transfer, however pronounced the differences at latter stages that arise during the subsequent electron-nucleus interaction. Although the classical calculations reproduce the quantum momentum distributions, it fails to describe properly the angular momentum distributions, even in the limit of strong fields. The origin of this failure can be attributed to the difference between quantum and classical initial spatial distributions. 相似文献

A remarkable effect of circular dichroism, i.e., a difference in photoelectron spectra produced by right and left circularly polarized light in two-color multiphoton ionization of atoms, is predicted for the case when the atom is ionized by an extreme ultraviolet or x-ray femtosecond pulse in the field of a strong infrared laser pulse, both pulses being circularly polarized. We show that the sidebands formed in the spectra exhibit different circular dichroism often of different signs both in angle-resolved and angle-integrated experimental conditions. The effect can be used for detecting and measuring circular polarization of x rays in a spectral range where other methods are not effective. 相似文献

By virtue of the numerical method of Graham and Höhnerbach [12], we have investigated the quantum fluctuations of the atomic dipole variables in the multiphoton Jaynes-Cummings model with and without the rotating wave approximation (RWA) when it is restricted to the following initial condition: the atom in its superposition state and the field in the vacuum state. We found that even under the conditions in which the RWA is considered to be valid there are significant effects of virtual-photon field on dipole squeezing predicted in the RWA, and dipole squeezing turns to disappear for sufficiently strong coupling. 相似文献

Selective excitation of laser-induced breakdown in krypton in the pressure range 1–4 bar and the spectral range 420–620 nm at a laser intensity of 1011 W/cm2 has been studied. It is shown that the breakdown of krypton can be induced selectively due to resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization via excited atomic states. A number of four- and five-photon atomic resonances have been identified in breakdown excitation spectra. The role of different factors determining the selectivity of the breakdown has been studied. Possible analytical applications of a selective breakdown are discussed. 相似文献

Two-colour coherent control of multiphoton ionization: a comparison between long-range and short-range potential model atoms 下载免费PDF全文
Using the numerical solution of the time-dependent Schr\"odinger
equation of a one-dimensional model atom in a two-colour laser field,
we have investigated the effects of the potential models on coherent
control of atomic multiphoton ionization. It is found that the
photoelectron spectra are obviously different for the long-range
(Coulomb-like) and short-range (with no excited bound states)
potential model atoms, which are produced by two-colour coherent
control of atomic multiphoton ionization in a few laser cycles. Our
results indicate that two-colour coherent control of atomic
multiphoton ionization can be observed in simulations, depending on
the choice of the model potentials. 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

Finite Space Complete Basis Method: Precision Computation of High-Resolution Spectrum near Ionization Threshold 下载免费PDF全文
A new method is proposed to describe quantum dynamical processes in finite space by using of a set of discretized complete bases. In this method, the finite space complete basis is obtained by solving the self-consistent field equation with reflecting boundary conditions. Hence, both negative and positive orbital energies can be obtained. Such method can be used in systems which involve dynamics only in the reaction zone, i.e., in a finite space. To illustrate the validity of the method, we present two examples: theoretical calculation of the high excited states spectra including the continuum of sodium and barium. 相似文献

The ionization of atoms in a strong nonclassical unimodal electromagnetic field was considered. It was shown that the probability of ionization could substantially change depending on the quantum state of the field even at a constant mean number of quanta in the radiation mode. The difference of ionization rates was especially large for multiphoton ionization processes. It was, in particular, shown that a nonclassical field could be much more effective from the point of view of the ionization of atoms than a classical field of the same intensity. The characteristics of the decay of a bound atomic system state in a strong nonclassical field were studied without invoking perturbation theory. 相似文献

Closed analytic expressions are derived for the probability of multiphoton atomic and ionic ionization in a variable electric field ?(t), which are applicable for arbitrary Keldysh parameters γ. Dependencies of the ionization probability and photoelectron pulse spectrum on the shape of a very short laser pulse are analyzed. Examples of pulse fields of various forms, including a modulated light pulse with a Gaussian or Lorentz envelope, are considered in detail. The interference effect in the photoelectron energy spectrum during atomic ionization by a periodic field of a general form is examined. The range of applicability of the adiabatic approximation in the multiphoton ionization theory is discussed. The imaginary time method is used in the calculations, which allows the probability of particle tunneling through oscillating barriers to be effectively calculated. 相似文献

Classical predictions of field ionization of hydrogen and of Coulomb scattering in strong laser fields are compared with corresponding
exact numerical solutions of the time-dependent Schr?dinger equation. In the quasi-static approximation, ionization rates
are significantly lower than the quasi-classical tunneling rates in the regime of above-barrier ionization. This reduction
is consistent with a simple classical barrier-suppression model. In time-periodic fields, the major differences between the
classical and quantum-mechanical treatments arise from quantum-mechanical interference oscillations. These are typical for
tunneling barriers in an applied field and for scattering by an oscillating potential.

The dynamics of hydrogen atom in the presence of a strong radiation field of the titanium-sapphire laser is studied for the Keldysh parameters γ ≥ 1 and γ ≤ 1. It is demonstrated that the ionization is supplemented with the effective population of the excited states with the principal quantum numbers n = 5–10 in the entire range of variation in the Keldysh parameter. The population of the excited Rydberg states can be interpreted as a consequence of the multiphoton resonance involving the initial 1s state and a group of excited states in the vicinity of the continuum boundary with the simultaneous repopulation of these states by Λ-type Raman transitions under the action of the laser field. The resulting coherent Rydberg packet appears to be stable with respect to ionization, so that the ionization of the atomic system in the presence of strong electromagnetic field is suppressed. Physical reasons for the stabilization are discussed. An interpretation of the effective population of the Rydberg states in the recent experiments on the ionization of atomic helium by the titanium-sapphire laser is proposed. 相似文献

Ab initio time-dependent (TD) calculations of the behavior of positronium (Ps) under strong subpicosecond laser pulses are presented.
The results are compared with results in H through scaling. It is found that a substantial amount of the population can be
found in excited states after the pulse. In the perturbative regime, generalized multiphoton ionization cross-sections are
extracted from the results of the time-dependent calculations. The generalized cross-sections are used to predict the response
of Ps to nanosecond laser pulses at wavelengths of current experimental interest. Beyond the application to Ps, the generality
of the method for extracting generalized cross-sections from TD nonperturbative calculations is discussed.

Photoelectron spectroscopy has been performed to study the multiphoton double ionization of Ar in an intense extreme ultraviolet laser field (hν ~ 21 eV, ~ 5 TW/cm2), by using a free electron laser (FEL). Three distinct peaks identified in the observed photoelectron spectra clearly show that the double ionization proceeds sequentially via the formation of Ar(+): Ar+hν→Ar (+) + e? and Ar2(+) + 2hν→Ar(+) + e?. Shot-by-shot recording of the photoelectron spectra allows simultaneous monitoring of FEL spectrum and the multiphoton process for each FEL pulse, revealing that the two-photon ionization from Ar(+) is significantly enhanced by intermediate resonances in Ar(+). 相似文献
