Fully differential rates for femtosecond multiphoton double ionization of neon.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have investigated the full three-dimensional momentum correlation between the electrons emitted from strong field double ionization of neon when the recollision energy of the first electron is on the order of the ionization potential. The momentum correlation in the direction perpendicular to the laser field depends on the time difference of the two electrons leaving the ion. Our results are consistent with double ionization proceeding through transient double excited states that field ionize.

Fully differential single-photon double ionization of neon and argon.
Triply differential cross sections are calculated for one-photon double ionization of neon and argon at various photon energies and electron energy sharings by using a frozen-core treatment to represent the remaining electrons of the residual ion. Angular distributions agree well with all existing experimental data, showing that in spite of its simplicity the method can treat the double ionizat...
متن کاملSingle and Multiple Electron Dynamics in the Strong Field Limit
High precision photoelectron energy and angular distributions in helium and neon atoms for a broad intensity range reflect the change in the continuum dynamics that occurs as the ionization process evolves into the pure tunneling regime. Elastic rescattering of the laser-driven free electron from its parent ion core leaves a distinct signature on the spectra, providing a direct quantitative tes...
متن کاملElectron impact double ionization of neon
Electron-impact double ionization from the valence shell of neon has been measured at an incident electron energy of 3662.5 eV. Double-coincidence (e, (3-1)e) measurements have been made between the scattered electron and each of the ejected electrons in turn, ejected energies were 10 eV and 90 eV, respectively, at ejection angles of 45, 60, 90, 120 and 135 degrees with respect to the incident ...
متن کاملPartitioning of the linear photon momentum in multiphoton ionization.
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 correspo...
متن کاملFemtosecond light source for phase-controlled multiphoton ionization.
We describe a femtosecond Raman light source with more than an octave of optical bandwidth. We use this source to demonstrate phase control of multiphoton ionization under conditions where ionization requires eleven photons of the lowest frequency of the spectrum or five photons of the highest frequency. The nonlinearity of the photoionization process allows us to characterize the light source....
