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…
Strong-field effects in Rabi oscillations between a single state and a superposition of states
S. Zhdanovich, J. W. Hepburn, V. Milner
Rabi oscillations of quantum population are known to occur in two-level systems driven by spectrally narrow laser fields. In this work we study Rabi oscillations induced by shaped…
Control of molecular rotation with a chiral train of ultrashort pulses
S. Zhdanovich, A. A. Milner, C. Bloomquist +4
Trains of ultrashort laser pulses separated by the time of rotational revival (typically, tens of picoseconds) have been exploited for creating ensembles of aligned molecules. In t…
Complete transfer of populations from a single state to a pre-selected superposition of states using Piecewise Adiabatic Passage: Experiment
S. Zhdanovich, E. A. Shapiro, J. W. Hepburn +2
We demonstrate a method of adiabatic population transfer from a single quantum state into a coherent superposition of states. The transfer is executed with femtosecond pulses, spec…
