Selective Rotational Excitation of Molecular Isotopes and Nuclear Spin Isomers
Sharly Fleischer, Ilya. Sh. Averbukh, Yehiam Prior
Following excitation by a strong ultra-short laser pulse, molecules develop coordinated rotational motion, exhibiting transient alignment along the direction of the laser electric…

Rotational Control and Selective Isotope Alignment by Ultrashort Pulses
Sharly Fleischer, I. Sh. Averbukh, Yehiam Prior
Strong ultrashort laser pulses give rise to prompt molecular alignment followed by full, half and quarter quantum revivals of the rotational wave packets. In Four Wave Mixing (FWM)…
