Multiphoton absorption line shapes and branching ratios in intense laser fields: An application to H2+ photodissociation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Time-dependent transition amplitudes between bound and continuum states coupled by an intense laser field are expressed in terms of their energy-dependent analogs maintaining the coherence effects through the intervention of complex molecular dressed states (field-induced resonances). A coupledequation method combined with an artificial-channel technique, properly describing the preparation step, is used to calculate absorption line shapes and branching ratios of the Floquet states involved in the multiphoton absorption-emission processes. The formalism is applied to the photodissociation of H2+(1so.g, v =0,j=1~2po.„). The intense-field behavior of laser-induced resonance Fano profiles are analyzed in relation with the dissociation line shapes. Strong mixings appear for intensities larger than 10" W/cm and the distribution of higher-energy peaks decreases with increasing intensity, due to stimulated emissions of the dissociating fragments.

Counterintuitive alignment of H2(+) in intense femtosecond laser fields.
The multiphoton ionization of H2 has been studied using laser pulses of 266 nm wavelength, 250 fs duration, and 5x10(13) W/cm(2) peak intensity. Dissociation of H2(+) via one-photon absorption proceeds through two channels with markedly different proton angular distributions. The lower-energy channel (2.6 eV kinetic energy release) is produced in the bond softening mechanism, which generates pa...
متن کاملComplex-scaling generalized pseudospectral method for quasienergy resonance states in two-center systems: Application to the Floquet study of charge resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization of molecular ions in intense low-frequency laser fields
We present a complex-scaling generalized pseudospectral method for accurate and efficient treatment of resonance states in two-center molecular systems, involving optimal nonuniform grid discretization of the Hamiltonian in prolate spheroidal coordinates. The procedure is applied to the first converged non-Hermitian Floquet study of multiphoton ionization of molecular ions in intense low-freque...
متن کاملControl of polarized iodine atom branching ratio in NaI photodissociation
We report branching ratios between the ground and excited states of iodine atoms in the photodissociation of sodium iodide. We employ wave packet propagation techniques to study the optimal production of polarized iodine atoms and find experimentally realizable laser parameters to control the outcome. Application of a learning algorithm shows that the product branching can be controlled by suit...
متن کاملAtoms Interacting with Electromagnetic Fields, Multiphoton Ionization
The non linear interaction between an intense laser radiation and atoms leads to ionization through the absorption of N photons from the laser radiation via laser-induced virtual states. The multiphoton ionization rate varies as a function of the laser intensity I as IN. We discuss the two most important effects which govern multiphoton ionization processes : resonance effects and laser-coheren...
متن کاملIsotope effects and bond softening in intense-laser-field multiphoton dissociation of H2+
Isotope efFects in the Hz+-Dz+ fragmentation by intense laser fields o6er the possibility of a multiphoton interpretation of the bond-softening mechanism. Surprisingly, the calculations indicate that the one-photon dissociation of D&+ is favored with respect to that of H&+. This cannot be understood, as has previously been done, by a single-photon mechanism following tunneling through a lowered...
