Probing molecular potentials with an optical centrifuge
A. A. Milner, A. Korobenko, J. W. Hepburn +1
We use an optical centrifuge to excite coherent rotational wave packets in NO, CS and OCS molecules with rotational quantum numbers reaching up to J=465, 690 and 1186, resp…
Control of molecular rotation in the limit of extreme rotational excitation
V. Milner, J. W. Hepburn
Laser control of molecular rotation is an area of active research. A number of recent studies has aimed at expanding the reach of rotational control to extreme, previously inaccess…
Observation of nondispersing classical-like molecular rotation
Aleksey Korobenko, John W. Hepburn, Valery Milner
Using the technique of an optical centrifuge, we produce rotational wave packets which evolve in time along either classical-like or non-classical trajectories. After releasing O2…
Effects of ultrafast molecular rotation on collisional decoherence
Alexander A. Milner, Aleksey Korobenko, John W. Hepburn +1
Using an optical centrifuge to control molecular rotation in an extremely broad range of angular momenta, we study coherent rotational dynamics of nitrogen molecules in the presenc…
Rotational spectroscopy with an optical centrifuge
Aleksey Korobenko, Alexander A. Milner, John W. Hepburn +1
We demonstrate a new spectroscopic method for studying electronic transitions in molecules with extremely broad range of angular momentum. We employ an optical centrifuge to create…
Quantum resonances in selective rotational excitation of molecules with a sequence of ultrashort laser pulses
S. Zhdanovich, C. Bloomquist, J. Floß +3
We investigate experimentally the effect of quantum resonance in the rotational excitation of the simplest quantum rotor - a diatomic molecule. By using the techniques of high-reso…
