Strong-field ionization of aligned molecules
Theoretical studies of strong-field ionization of molecules are impeded by the complexity of the molecular electronic structure. Up till now, full ab initio calculations of the alignmentdependent ionization are available only for H2 and H2. For larger molecules, despite a tremendous amount of experiments, no ab initio calculations are available, and the most widely used approaches to explain st...
متن کاملStrong-field molecular ionization: determination of ionization probabilities calibrated with field-free alignment.
We report an original optical method providing the probability of molecular ionization induced by femtosecond laser pulses. The approach consists of exploiting molecular alignment to extract reliable information about ionization. The cross defocusing technique implemented for this purpose reveals a sensitivity with respect to postpulse alignment, as well as to the free electron density induced ...
متن کاملStrong-field ionization of sputtered molecules for biomolecular imaging.
Photoionization of molecules sputtered from molecular thin films has been achieved using high field 125 fs pulses in the mid-IR spectral range. Using several model systems, we show that it is possible to significantly reduce molecular fragmentation induced by the laser field by increasing the photoionization wavelength. By examining the photoionization spectra as a function of wavelength, it is...
متن کاملIonization Study of Isomeric Molecules in Strong-field Laser Pulses
Through the use of the technique of time-of-flight mass spectroscopy, we obtain strong-field ionization yields for randomly oriented 1,2-dichloroethylene (1,2-DCE) (C2H2Cl2) and 2-butene (C4H8). We are interested in studying the effect of conformal structure in strong-field ionization and, in particular, the role of molecular polarity. That is, we can perform strong-field ionization studies in ...
متن کاملCoulomb asymmetry in strong field multielectron ionization of diatomic molecules.
We measure the angular distribution of an electron emitted by a strong elliptically polarized two-color laser field from exploding doubly charged molecular nitrogen. This angular distribution is vastly different for emission of the electron from the up-field core of the molecule as compared to that from the down-field core. The emission from the down-field core leads to a slight rotation with r...
