Direct imaging of rotational wave-packet dynamics of diatomic molecules

Journal Article Dooley, P W ; Lee, Kevin F ; Corkum, P B ; ... - Physical Review. A

We use linearly polarized 45 fs pulses to create rotational wave packets in N{sub 2} and O{sub 2}. We Coulomb explode molecules with a high-intensity circularly polarized pulse and use an ion imaging detector to measure a series of two-dimensional projections of the wave packet's angular distribution in 27 fs increments. We highlight the evolving wave packet near the first, second, sixth, and tenth full revival times and also near the one-eighth, one-quarter, one-half, and three-quarter fractional revivals.

Time-resolved Coulomb-explosion imaging of nuclear wave-packet dynamics induced in diatomic molecules by intense few-cycle laser pulses

Journal Article Bocharova, I A ; Thumm, U ; Ray, D ; ... - Physical Review. A

We studied the nuclear dynamics in diatomic molecules (N{sub 2}, O{sub 2}, and CO) following their interaction with intense near-IR few-cycle laser pulses. Using Coulomb-explosion imaging in combination with the pump-probe approach, we mapped dissociation pathways of those molecules and their molecular ions. We identified all symmetric and asymmetric breakup channels for molecular ions up to N{sub 2}{sup 5+}, O{sub 2}{sup 4+}, and CO{sup 4+}. For each of those channels we measured the kinetic energy release (KER) spectra as a function of delay between the pump and probe pulses. For both N{sub 2} and O{sub 2} the asymmetric (3,1) channelmore »« less

Monte Carlo wave packet approach to dissociative multiple ionization in diatomic molecules

Journal Article Leth, Henriette Astrup ; Madsen, Lars Bojer ; Moelmer, Klaus - Physical Review. A

A detailed description of the Monte Carlo wave packet technique applied to dissociative multiple ionization of diatomic molecules in short intense laser pulses is presented. The Monte Carlo wave packet technique relies on the Born-Oppenheimer separation of electronic and nuclear dynamics and provides a consistent theoretical framework for treating simultaneously both ionization and dissociation. By simulating the detection of continuum electrons and collapsing the system onto either the neutral, singly ionized or doubly ionized states in every time step the nuclear dynamics can be solved separately for each molecular charge state. Our model circumvents the solution of a multiparticle Schroedingermore »« less

Wave-packet squeezing by iterative pump-dump control in diatomic molecules

Journal Article Chang, Bo Y ; Lee, Sungyul ; Sola, Ignacio R ; ... - Physical Review. A

Iterative vibrational wave packet squeezing by a sequence of femtosecond pulses is proposed. Analytic formulas are derived for the harmonic oscillator case, and the practical implementation of the scheme is tested on different electronic transitions in Rb{sub 2}.
