Manipulation of Diatomic Molecules with 'Oriented External Electric Fields': Linear Correlations in Atomic Properties Lead to Non-Linear Molecular Responses
Shahin Sowlati-Hashjin, Mikko Karttunen, Cherif F. Matta
'Oriented external electric fields (OEEFs)' have been shown to have great potential in being able to provide unprecedented control of chemical reactions, catalysis and selectivity…
