Vibrationally-induced electronic population inversion with strong femtosecond pulses
Pablo Sampedro, Bo Y. Chang, Ignacio R. Sola
We discover a new mechanism of electronic population inversion using strong femtosecond pulses, where the transfer is mediated by vibrational motion on a light-induced potential. T…

Lighting the Landscape: Molecular Events Under Dynamic Stark Shifts
Bo Y. Chang, Ignacio R. Sola, Seokmin Shin
A new perspective on how to manipulate molecules by means of very strong laser pulses is emerging with insights from the so-called light-induced potentials, which are the adiabatic…

Protecting and accelerating adiabatic passage with time-delayed pulse sequences
Pablo Sampedro, Bo Y. Chang, Ignacio R. Sola
Using numerical simulations of two-photon electronic absorption with femtosecond pulses in Na we show that: i) it is possible to avoid the characteristic saturation or dumped R…
