Strictly Non-Adiabatic Quantum Control of the Acetylene Dication Using an Infrared Field
arXiv:2003.02096 · doi:10.1063/5.0007058
Abstract
We demonstrate the existence of a strictly non-adiabatic control pathway in deprotonation of the acetylene dication. This pathway is identified experimentally by measuring a kinetic energy shift in an ion coincidence experiment. We use a TDSE simulation to identify which properties most strongly affect our control. We find that resonant control around conical intersections is limited by the speed of non-adiabatic dynamics.
