Optical centrifuge as a probe of strong dissipative coupling between a molecular rotor and superfluid helium
Ian MacPhail-Bartley, Sören E. Mahr, Cameron E. Peters +7
A macroscopic manifestation of superfluidity is that objects moving through liquid helium experience negligible friction below the Landau critical velocity. How this frictionless m…
Nonadiabatic Laser-Induced Alignment Dynamics of Molecules on a Surface
Lorenz Kranabetter, Henrik H. Kristensen, Areg Ghazaryan +7
We demonstrate that a sodium dimer, Na(), residing on the surface of a helium nanodroplet, can be set into rotation by a nonresonant 1.0 ps infrared laser pulse.…
Generation of Large Vortex-Free Superfluid Helium Nanodroplets
Anatoli Ulmer, Andrea Heilrath, Björn Senfftleben +38
Superfluid helium nanodroplets are an ideal environment for the formation of metastable, self-organized dopant nanostructures. However, the presence of vortices often hinders their…
Laser-induced Coulomb Explosion Imaging of Alkali Dimers on Helium Nanodroplets
Henrik H. Kristensen, Lorenz Kranabetter, Constant A. Schouder +3
Alkali dimers, , residing on the surface of He nanodroplets are doubly ionized due to multiphoton absorption from an intense, 50-fs laser pulse leading to fragmentat…
A simple model for high rotational excitations of molecules in a superfluid
Igor N. Cherepanov, Giacomo Bighin, Constant A. Schouder +3
We present a simple quantum mechanical model describing excited rotational states of molecules in superfluid helium nanodroplets, as recently studied in non-adiabatic molecular ali…
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…
