Nuclear motion in carbonyl sulfide induced by resonant core electron excitation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The angular anisotropy for selected dissociation channels is measured at resonantly excited states of Σ and Π symmetries at the C and O K-shell ionization edges of carbonyl sulfide. While the kinetic energy released in the reaction is mainly independent of the excitation energy, the angular anisotropy and momentum correlation clearly show deformation of the OCS molecule in the C 1s(-1)π(∗1) state. The discovery of a two-body fragmentation channel SO(+)/C(+) with a well defined angular anisotropy indicates the rapid formation of the CSO isomeric species.

Molecular dynamics of NH3 induced by core-electron excitation.
Nuclear motion in the N1s(-1)4a core-excited state of ammonia is investigated by studying the angular anisotropy of fragments produced in the decay of the highly excited molecule and compared with predictions from ab initio calculations. Two different fragmentation channels (H(+)/NH2(+) and H(+)/NH(+)/H) reveal complex nuclear dynamics as the excitation photon energy is tuned through the 4a1 re...
متن کاملInteratomic Coulombic decay following resonant core excitation of Ar in argon dimer.
A scheme utilizing excitation of core electrons followed by the resonant-Auger - interatomic Coulombic decay (RA-ICD) cascade was recently proposed as a means of controlling the generation site and energies of slow ICD electrons. This control mechanism was verified in a series of experiments in rare gas dimers. In this article, we present fully ab initio computed ICD electron and kinetic energy...
متن کاملPulsed Rydberg four-wave mixing with motion-induced dephasing in a thermal vapor.
We report on time-resolved pulsed four-wave mixing (FWM) signals in a thermal Rubidium vapor involving a Rydberg state. We observe FWM signals with dephasing times up to 7 ns, strongly dependent on the excitation bandwidth to the Rydberg state. The excitation to the Rydberg state is driven by a pulsed two-photon transition on ns timescales. Combined with a cw de-excitation laser, a strongly dir...
متن کاملKnight-field-enabled nuclear spin polarization in single quantum dots.
We demonstrate dynamical nuclear-spin polarization in the absence of an external magnetic field by resonant circularly polarized optical excitation of a single electron or hole charged quantum dot. Optical pumping of the electron spin induces an effective inhomogeneous magnetic (Knight) field that determines the direction along which nuclear spins could polarize and enables nuclear-spin cooling...
