Controlled redistribution of vibrational population by few-cycle strong-field laser pulses

W. A. Bryan, C. R. Calvert, R. B. King +3

The use of strong-field (i.e. intensities in excess of 10^13 Wcm-2) few-cycle ultrafast (durations of 10 femtoseconds or less) laser pulses to create, manipulate and image vibratio…

Atomic excitation during recollision-free ultrafast multi-electron tunnel ionization

W. A. Bryan, S. L. Stebbings, J. McKenna +12

Modern intense ultrafast pulsed lasers generate an electric field of sufficient strength to permit tunnel ionization of the valence electrons in atoms. This process is usually trea…

Quantum Chessboards in the Deuterium Molecular Ion

C. R. Calvert, T. Birkeland, R. B. King +2

We present a new algorithm for vibrational control in deuterium molecules that is feasible with current experimental technology. A pump mechanism is used to create a coherent super…

Isolated vibrational wavepackets in D2+: Defining superposition conditions and wavepacket distinguishability

W. A. Bryan, J. McKenna, E. M. L. English +9

Tunnel ionization of room-temperature D in an ultrashort (12 femtosecond) near infra-red (800 nm) pump laser pulse excites a vibrational wavepacket in the D2+ ions; a rotationa…

Mapping the Evolution of Optically-Generated Rotational Wavepackets in a Room Temperature Ensemble of D

W. A. Bryan, E. M. L. English, J. McKenna +7

A coherent superposition of rotational states in D has been excited by nonresonant ultrafast (12 femtosecond) intense (2 10 Wcm) 800 nm laser pulses lead…

Attosecond signatures in photodissociation by an intense Ti:Sapphire pulse

J F McCann, Liang-You Peng, I D Williams

In our model the electron dynamics are described by a two-state approximation. This might appear a rough approximation since it neglects coupling through excited electronic states…
