Directional deprotonation ionization of acetylene in asymmetric two-color laser fields
نویسندگان
چکیده
We experimentally investigate the deprotonation dissociative double ionization of an acetylene molecule by an asymmetric two-color laser pulse. We find that the ejection direction of the proton, and hence the directional C–H bond breaking of a polyatomic hydrocarbon molecule, can be controlled by finely tuning the phase of a two-color laser pulse.

Subfemtosecond 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 کاملControlling Nonsequential Double Ionization in Two-Color Circularly Polarized Femtosecond Laser Fields.
Atoms undergoing strong-field ionization in two-color circularly polarized femtosecond laser fields exhibit unique two-dimensional photoelectron trajectories and can emit bright circularly polarized extreme ultraviolet and soft-x-ray beams. In this Letter, we present the first experimental observation of nonsequential double ionization in these tailored laser fields. Moreover, we can enhance or...

Background: The dosimetric performance of Eclipse 6.5 three dimensional treatment planning system (3DTPS) is evaluated by comparing the calculated and measured dose in two dimensions following the guide lines of American Association for Physicists in Medicine Task Group 53. Materials and Methods: The calculations were performed by the 3DTPS for symmetric as well as asymmetric fields for standar...

Introduction: Radiation therapy is one of the most important methods of cancer treatment. Radiation therapy uses symmetric and asymmetric fields in which the radiation dose distribution is different. To calculate the dose distribution, computer treatment planning systems are used which must have acceptable calculations accuracy. The aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy of the dose ...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of an Intense Isolated Attosecond Pulse by a Chirped Two-Color Laser Field
We investigate theoretically the high-order harmonic spectrum extension and numerical generation of an intense isolated attosecond pulse from He+ ion irradiated by a two-color laser field. Our simulation results show that the chirp of the fundamental field can control HHG cutoff position. Also, these results show that the envelope forms of two fields are important factors for controlling the re...
