Ultrafast Preparation and Detection of Ring Currents in Single Atoms
Sebastian Eckart, Maksim Kunitski, Martin Richter +16
Quantum particles can penetrate potential barriers by tunneling (1). If that barrier is rotating, the tunneling process is modified (2,3). This is typical for electrons in atoms, m…
Hole dynamics and spin currents after ionization in strong circularly polarized laser fields
Ingo Barth, Olga Smirnova
We apply the time-dependent analytical R-matrix theory to develop a movie of hole motion in a Kr atom upon ionization by strong circularly polarized field. We find rich hole dynami…
Nonadiabatic tunneling in circularly polarized laser fields. III. Comparison with experiment
Ingo Barth, Olga Smirnova
We compare results of the recent experiment by Herath et al [T. Herath, L. Yan, S. K. Lee, and W. Li, Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 043004 (2012)] on strong-field nonadiabatic tunneling in…
Spin polarized electrons produced by strong field ionization
Ingo Barth, Olga Smirnova
We show that ionization of noble gas atoms by strong infrared circularly polarized laser field under standard exerimental conditions can yield electrons with up to 100% spin polari…
Nonadiabatic tunneling in circularly polarized laser fields: Derivation of formulas
Ingo Barth, Olga Smirnova
We provide detailed analysis of strong field ionization of degenerate valence p orbitals by circularly polarized fields. Our analytical approach is conceptually equivalent to the P…
