Bond-selective fragmentation of water molecules with intense, ultrafast, carrier envelope phase stabilized laser pulses

D. Mathur, K. Dota, J. A. Dharmadhikari +1

Carrier envelope phase (CEP) stabilized pulses of intense 800 nm light of 5 fs duration are used to probe the dissociation dynamics of dications of isotopically-substituted water,…

Carrier envelope phase effects in ultrafast, strong-field ionization dynamics of multielectron systems: Xe and CS

D. Mathur, K. Dota, A. K. Dharmadhikari +1

Carrier envelope phase (CEP) stabilized 5 fs and 22 fs pulses of intense 800 nm light are used to probe the strong-field ionization dynamics of multielectron entities, xenon and ca…

Intense 2-cycle laser pulses induce time-dependent bond-hardening in a polyatomic molecule

K. Dota, M. Garg, A. K. Tiwari +3

A time-dependent bond-hardening process is discovered in a polyatomic molecule (tetramethyl silane, TMS) using few-cycle pulses of intense 800 nm light. In conventional mass spectr…

Laser-driven accelerated growth of dendritic patterns

H. Basu, K. M. Kolwankar, A. K. Dharmadhikari +4

We report a scheme for very significantly accelerating growth of dendritic patterns in diverse liquids, making use of only a few hundred microwatts of laser power in the presence o…

Euler buckling in red blood cells: An optically driven biological micromotor

A. Ghosh, Supurna Sinha, J. A. Dharmadhikari +5

We investigate the physics of an optically-driven micromotor of biological origin. A single, live red blood cell, when placed in an optical trap folds into a rod-like shape. If the…
