Optical detection of interfering pathways in subfemtosecond multielectron dynamics.

چکیده
We show how time-resolved coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering can be used to identify interfering pathways in the relaxation dynamics of autoionizing transients in many-electron systems, on femto- and attosecond time scales. For coherent population of many states, autoionizing wave-packet dynamics is resolved. We identify bound-bound, continuum-bound, and bound-continuum-bound contributions and show that they leave distinct features in the total coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering signal.

Ultrashort pulse generation by molecular modulation
This PhD Tutorial describes a new source of coherent radiation, with a spectrum extending over many octaves of optical bandwidth. We demonstrate collinear generation of mutually coherent spectral sidebands, ranging in wavelength from 2.94 μm in the infrared to 195 nm in the ultraviolet. The pulse energies are above 1 mJ/10 ns pulse for each of the nine central sidebands. The essence of our tech...
متن کاملSubfemtosecond pulses in the multicascade stimulated Raman scattering
We explore recently predicted multifrequency 2p solitons in multicascade stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) that was mode locked by the dynamics of population at a Raman quantum transition; we show that these solitons are eigensolitons of a general solitary-wave solution. Soliton components at each frequency are bright pulses of the same (Lorentzian) shape, in contrast to the familiar bright–dar...
متن کاملMultidimensional high harmonic spectroscopy of polyatomic molecules: detecting sub-cycle laser-driven hole dynamics upon ionization in strong mid-IR laser fields.
High harmonic generation (HHG) spectroscopy has opened up a new frontier in ultrafast science, where electronic dynamics can be measured on an attosecond time scale. The strong laser field that triggers the high harmonic response also opens multiple quantum pathways for multielectron dynamics in molecules, resulting in a complex process of multielectron rearrangement during ionization. Using co...
متن کاملSubfemtosecond steering of hydrocarbon deprotonation through superposition of vibrational modes.
Subfemtosecond control of the breaking and making of chemical bonds in polyatomic molecules is poised to open new pathways for the laser-driven synthesis of chemical products. The break-up of the C-H bond in hydrocarbons is an ubiquitous process during laser-induced dissociation. While the yield of the deprotonation of hydrocarbons has been successfully manipulated in recent studies, full contr...
متن کاملDesign novel optical sensor for determination of bismuth based on immobilization of 4-(4-nitrophenyl)-1-naphthol on a triacetylcellulose membrane
A novel optical sensor has been proposed for sensitive determination of bismuth ion basedon immobilization of 4-(4-nitrophenylazo)-1-naphthol on a triacetylcellulose membrane.Chemical binding of bismuth ions in solution with a 4-(4-nitrophenylazo)-1-naphtholimmobilized on the triacetylcelluse surface could be monitored spectrophotometrically. Theoptode shows excellent response over wide concent...
