Reaching optimally oriented molecular states by laser kicks
arXiv:quant-ph/0310099 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.69.033402
Abstract
We present a strategy for post-pulse orientation aiming both at efficiency and maximal duration within a rotational period. We first identify the optimally oriented states which fulfill both requirements. We show that a sequence of half-cycle pulses of moderate intensity can be devised for reaching these target states.
