Ultrafast optical rotation for extremely sensitive enantio-discrimination
David Ayuso, Andres Ordonez, Misha Ivanov +1
Sculpting sub-cycle temporal structures of optical waveforms allows one to image and even control electronic clouds in atoms, molecules and solids. Here we show how the transverse…
Sub-cycle valleytronics: control of valley polarization using few-cycle linearly polarized pulses
Álvaro Jiménez-Galán, Rui Silva, Olga Smirnova +1
So far, selective excitation of a desired valley in the Brillouin zone of a hexagonal two-dimensional material has relied on using circularly polarized fields. We theoretically dem…
Polarization of chirality
David Ayuso, Andres Ordonez, Piero Decleva +2
It has been long recognized that the spatial polarization of the electronic clouds in molecules, and the spatial arrangements of atoms into chiral molecular structures, play crucia…
N Lasing: Gain and Absorption in the Presence of Rotational Coherence
Marianna Lytova, Maria Richter, Felipe Morales +3
We simulate the pump-probe experiments of lasing in molecular nitrogen ions with particular interest on the effects of rotational wave-packet dynamics. Our computations demonstrate…
Rotational Quantum Beat Lasing Without Inversion
Maria Richter, Marianna Lytova, Felipe Morales +4
In standard lasers, light amplification requires population inversion between an upper and a lower state to break the reciprocity between absorption and stimulated emission. Howeve…
