Rydberg-Stark deceleration of atoms and molecules
Correspondence: [email protected] Department of Physics and Astronomy, University College London, Gower Street, WC1E 6BT London, UK Abstract The large electric dipole moments associated with highly excited Rydberg states of atoms and molecules make gas-phase samples in these states very well suited to deceleration and trapping using inhomogeneous electric fields. The methods of Rydberg-Stark de...
متن کاملEnhancement of Rydberg atom interactions using ac Stark shifts.
The ac Stark effect was used to induce resonant energy transfer between translationally cold 85Rb Rydberg atoms. When a 28.5 GHz dressing field was set at specific field strengths, the two-atom dipole-dipole process 43d5/2+43d5/2-->45p3/2+41f was dramatically enhanced, due to induced degeneracy of the initial and final states. This method for enhancing interactions is complementary to dc electr...
متن کاملIonization of Rydberg Atoms by a Stark Kick
We provide a rigorous lower bound for the ionization probability of a Rydberg atom under the perturbation by a time-dependent electric eld in the form of an ultrashort pulse idealized as a Dirac-function. This estimate is of the form 1 ? O(F ?4 0) for large values of the electric eld F 0. For the hydrogen atom we also prove the scaling behavior F 0 n ?1 , predicted recently by Reinhold et al. P...
متن کاملBlackbody-radiation-induced resonances between Rydberg-Stark states of Na
We report on measurements of the population of Rydberg states of Na in a constant electric field that result when 300-K blackbody radiation induces transitions from initial states with umu50,1 to neighboring states. Our measurements included comprehensive ranges of initial states (ni*524–29!, repopulation times (td50–50 ms!, and fields (Fs5175–712 V/cm!. We find that the population is redistrib...
متن کاملMotional, isotope and quadratic Stark effects in Rydberg–Stark deceleration and electric trapping of H and D
Hydrogen and deuterium Rydberg atoms, initially moving at velocities of 600 m/s and 560 m/s, respectively, in pulsed supersonic beams, have been decelerated and electrostatically trapped following adiabatic 90◦ deflection from their initial axis of propagation to minimise collisions with the trailing edge of the gas pulses. The time evolution of the potential energy surfaces, over which the ato...
