"Molecular waveplate" for the control of ultrashort pulses carrying orbital angular momentum
Chengqing Xu, Lixin He, Wanchen Tao +8
Ultrashort laser pulses carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) have become essential tools in Atomic, Molecular, and Optical (AMO) studies, particularly for investigating strong-f…
Enhanced Persistent Orientation of Asymmetric-Top Molecules Induced by Cross-Polarized Terahertz Pulses
Long Xu, Ilia Tutunnikov, Yehiam Prior +1
We investigate the persistent orientation of asymmetric-top molecules induced by time-delayed THz pulses that are either collinearly or cross polarized. Our theoretical and numeric…
Ionization-induced Long-lasting Orientation of Symmetric-top Molecules
Long Xu, Ilia Tutunnikov, Yehiam Prior +1
We theoretically consider the phenomenon of field-free long-lasting orientation of symmetric-top molecules ionized by two-color laser pulses. The anisotropic ionization produces a…
Echo-enhanced molecular orientation at high temperatures
Ilia Tutunnikov, Long Xu, Yehiam Prior +1
Ultrashort laser pulses are widely used for transient field-free molecular orientation -- a phenomenon important in chemical reaction dynamics, ultrafast molecular imaging, high ha…
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…
Femtosecond rotational dynamics of D molecules in superfluid helium nanodroplets
Junjie Qiang, Lianrong Zhou, Peifen Lu +17
Rotational dynamics of D molecules inside helium nanodroplets is induced by a moderately intense femtosecond (fs) pump pulse and measured as a function of time by recording the…
