Nonadiabatic alignment of rotationally cold N2 molecules is optimally controlled by shaping femtosecond pump pulses with the feedback of degree of alignment evaluated by an ion imaging technique. The alignment is optimized by doubly peaked pulses with approximately equal intensities. A doubly peaked pulse with an appropriate interval can be regarded as a single pulse with a center trough based on the considerations from both time and frequency domains, suggesting that the effective duration of a doubly peaked pulse rather than its structure is crucial to nonadiabatic molecular alignment. 相似文献

The angular distribution of CH3I is investigated experimentally using a single Fourier transform-limited laser pulse and a pulse train, where a 90-fs 800-nm linearly polarized laser field with a moderate intensity of 2.8×1013 W/cm2 is used. The dynamic alignment is demonstrated in a single pulse experiment. Moreover, a pulse train is used to optimize the molecular alignment, and the alignment degree is almost identical to that with the single pulse. The results are analysed by using chirped femtosecond laser pulses, and it demonstrates that the structure of pulse train rather than its effective duration is crucial to the molecular alignment. 相似文献

The existence of states for which molecular alignment can be maintained for long periods of time is shown. These states, consisting of coherent superpositions of rotational states, are found among cyclic states of the generalized Floquet operator corresponding to a molecule in a short nonresonant laser pulse. For a single pulse alignment can be maintained, in some cases, for more than 40 times the pulse duration. Because of the special properties of these coherent states, arbitrarily long alignment can be achieved by using well-timed pulse trains. 相似文献

The field-free alignment of CO2 produced in response to the excitation of a molecule by a high-intensity femtosecond pump pulse is measured with a simple coronography-like technique. The technique is based on the defocusing of a time-delayed probe pulse produced by the spatial distribution of aligned molecules. In the intensity regime explored here, the technique is shown to give valuable information about dynamic alignment. With the help of simulations, the degree of alignment is extracted from the data. 相似文献

This paper solves numerically the full time-dependent Schrdinger equation based on the rigid rotor model, and proposes a novel strategy to determine the optimal time delay of the two laser pulses to manipulate the molecular selective alignment. The results illustrate that the molecular alignment generated by the first pulse can be suppressed or enhanced selectively, the relative populations of even and odd rotational states in the final rotational wave packet can be manipulated selectively by precisely inserting the peak of the second laser pulse at the time when the slope for the alignment parameter by the first laser locates a local maximum for the even rotational states and a local minimum for the odds, and vice versa. The selective alignment can be further optimised by selecting the intensity ratio of the two laser pulses on the condition that the total laser intensity and pulse duration are kept constant. 相似文献

The field-free alignment of molecule ClCN is investigated by using a terahertz few-cycle pulse (THz FCP) based on the time-dependent density matrix theory. It is shown that a high degree of molecular alignment can be obtained by changing the matching number of the THz FCPs in the adiabatic regime and the non-adiabatic regime. The matching number can affect both the maximum value of the alignment and the time at which it is achieved. It is also found that a higher degree of alignment can be achieved by using the THz FCP at lower intensity and there exists an optimal threshold of molecular alignment with the increase of the field amplitude. Also found is the frequency sensitive region in which the degree of maximum alignment can be enhanced greatly by modulating the center frequencies of different THz FCPs. The investigation demonstrates that comparing with a THz single-cycle pulse, a better result of the field-free alignment can be created by a THz FCP at a constant rotational temperature of molecule. 相似文献

We report the experimental observation of revival structures in the alignment of a ground-state rotational wave packet following nonresonant excitation of I2 molecules by an intense picosecond laser pulse. The revivals appear at characteristic time delays following the excitation by the pump laser pulse, and show a significant narrowing of the angular distribution during a few picoseconds. The interaction with the pump laser also leads to a steady-state alignment of the molecule, due to rotational pumping. 相似文献

Through theoretical analysis,we show how aligning pulse durations affect the degree and the time-rate slope of nitrogen field-free alignment at a fixed pulse intensity.It is found that both the degree and the slope first increase,then saturate,and finally decrease with the increasing pump duration.The optimal durations for the maximum degree and the maximum slope of the alignment are found to be different.Additionally,they are found to mainly depend on the molecular rotational period,and are affected by the temperature and the aligning pump intensities.The mechanism of molecular alignment is also discussed. 相似文献

Nonadiabatic laser alignment of an asymmetric top molecule is studied using the combination of a quantum dynamical theory and time-resolved photofragment imaging experiments. In particular, the degree of alignment of iodobenzene, induced by an intense, linearly polarized picosecond laser pulse, is calculated and measured. Pronounced alignment is obtained under field-free conditions. 相似文献

We present a single-shot detection technique for field-free molecular alignment. The method is based on probing the time-varying birefringence of an aligned sample by use of a chirped probe pulse, thus encoding the dependence of the alignment on time onto the spectral domain. The technique is applied to alignment of O2. The recorded signals are well described by an analytical formula. 相似文献

Control on the alignment transients of impulsively aligned ensembles of N2 molecules has been demonstrated by the use of laser pulses shaped by a spatial light modulator. An alignment experiment has been inserted in the feedback loop of an evolutionary algorithm that found optimum pulse shapes for a set of criteria. Optimum pulse shapes for the maximization of total alignment and for the control of certain aspects of the revival structures are given. The physical mechanisms responsible for the control are analysed with the help of single‐parameter control schemes and numerical simulations, which allowed us to explore the low‐temperature region. This approach sheds light on the role played by different control mechanisms for the alignment dynamics of a molecular ensemble. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The dynamic alignment and post-ionization alignment of nitrogen molecules are investigated while considering the effect of tunneling ionization. The effects of tunneling ionization on the angular distribution are calculated when the molecules are irradiated by different laser intensities. The results show that laser intensity directly affects the time and extent of dynamic alignment. Furthermore, the extent of post-ionization alignment is not only determined by laser intensity but also affected by the final extent of dynamic alignment. The post-ionization alignment will dominate during the process of molecular (or molecular ion) rotational alignment for femtosecond laser pulse. The time of tunneling ionization is a significant factor to the final ensemble angular distribution of molecular ions when laser intensity is low. 相似文献

We show that the filamentation dynamics of a femtosecond laser probe pulse can be readily controlled by properly matching it to the quantum revivals of pre-aligned molecules prepared through impulsive rotational Raman excitation with an advancing ultrashort pump pulse. Several features of the filamentation process including supercontinuum generation, the length of the plasma channel generated in the wake of the filament, the associated secondary radiations and the multiple filamentation pattern are all easily modified by tuning the cross phase modulation induced by the field-free revivals of molecular alignment, through the delay between the pump and the probe pulses. We show that molecular alignment can also be used to generate conical waves with extremely short intensity spike called shocked X-waves and to further tune the frequency of a few-cycle laser pulse in the wake of a self-guided intense filament. 相似文献

We report on an analysis of a well known three-pulse sequence for generating and detecting spin I=1 quadrupolar order when various pulse errors are taken into account. In the situation of a single quadrupolar frequency, such as the case found in a single crystal, we studied the potential leakage of single and/or double quantum coherence when a pulse flip error, finite pulse width effect, RF transient or a resonance offset is present. Our analysis demonstrates that the four-step phase cycling scheme studied is robust in suppressing unwanted double and single quantum coherence as well as Zeeman order that arise from the experimental artifacts, allowing for an unbiased measurement of the quadrupolar alignment relaxation time, T(1Q). This work also reports on distortions in quadrupolar alignment echo spectra in the presence of experimental artifacts in the situation of a powdered sample, by simulation. Using our simulation tool, it is demonstrated that the spectral distortions associated with the pulse artifacts may be minimized, to some extent, by optimally choosing the time between the first two pulses. We highlight experimental results acquired on perdeuterated hexamethylbenzene and polyethylene that demonstrate the efficacy of the phase cycling scheme for suppressing unwanted quantum coherence when measuring T(1Q). It is suggested that one employ two separate pulse sequences when measuring T(1Q) to properly analyze the short time behavior of quadrupolar alignment relaxation data. 相似文献

We report a direct nonintrusive observation of alignment and planar delocalization of CO2 after an intense linearly polarized femtosecond laser pulse excitation. The effects are measured by a polarization technique involving a perturbative probe that itself does not induce appreciable alignment. We show that this technique allows one to measure a signal proportional to -1/3, with theta the angle between the molecular axis and the laser polarization. Simulations that support this analysis allow one to characterize the experimentally observed alignment and planar delocalization quantitatively. 相似文献
