Noise-enhanced Ballistic Expansion of Polariton Wave-packets in a Multimode Cavity
Ilia Tutunnikov, Md Qutubuddin, H. R. Sadeghpour +1
Advances in optical measurements enable precise tracking of cavity polariton wave-packets across broad spatial and temporal ranges, but how dephasing reshapes their real-space dyna…
Optimal Selective Orientation of Chiral Molecules Using Femtosecond Laser Pulses
Long Xu, Ilia Tutunnikov, Yehiam Prior +1
We present a comprehensive study of enantioselective orientation of chiral molecules excited by a pair of delayed cross-polarized femtosecond laser pulses. We show that by optimizi…
Rotation of polarization of light propagating through a gas of molecular super-rotors
Ilia Tutunnikov, Uri Steinitz, Erez Gershnabel +4
We present a detailed theoretical and experimental study of the rotation of the plane of polarization of light traveling through a gas of fast-spinning molecules. This effect is si…
Visualizing coherent molecular rotation in a gaseous medium
Ilia Tutunnikov, Emilien Prost, Uri Steinitz +5
Inducing and controlling the ultrafast molecular rotational dynamics using shaped laser fields is essential in numerous applications. Several approaches exist that allow following…
Three Dimensional Orientation of Complex Molecules Excited by Two-Color Femtosecond Pulses
Long Xu, Ilia Tutunnikov, Yehiam Prior +1
We study the excitation of asymmetric-top (including chiral) molecules by two-color femtosecond laser pulses. In the cases of non-chiral asymmetric-top molecules excited by an orth…
Long-Lasting Orientation of Symmetric-top Molecules Excited by Two-Color Femtosecond Pulses
Long Xu, Ilia Tutunnikov, Yehiam Prior +1
Impulsive orientation of symmetric-top molecules excited by two-color femtosecond pulses is considered. In addition to the well-known transient orientation appearing immediately af…
Enantioselective Orientation of Chiral Molecules Induced by Terahertz Pulses with Twisted Polarization
Ilia Tutunnikov, Long Xu, Robert W. Field +3
Chirality and chiral molecules are key elements in modern chemical and biochemical industries. Individual addressing, and the eventual separation of chiral enantiomers has been and…
Echoes in Unidirectionally Rotating Molecules
Long Xu, Ilia Tutunnikov, Lianrong Zhou +6
Abstract We report the experimental observation of molecular unidirectional rotation (UDR) echoes, and analyze their origin and behavior both classically and quantum mechanically.…
Optical imaging of coherent molecular rotors
Jérémy Bert, Emilien Prost, Ilia Tutunnikov +7
Short laser pulses are widely used for controlling molecular rotational degrees of freedom and inducing molecular alignment, orientation, unidirectional rotation and other types of…
