Above-threshold dissociative ionization in the intermediate intensity regime.

چکیده
The problem of dissociative ionization at intermediate intensities ( 10(10)-10(12) W cm(-2)) was studied using the example of I2 and the technique of velocity map imaging. Several new phenomena were observed, including a continuous distribution of recoil energies peaked at zero-kinetic energy, a set of constant dissociative ionic states, and strong anisotropy of the fragment velocity distribution that is diminished by intermediate resonances.

Dissociative Autoionization in (1 + 2)-photon above Threshold Excitation of H2 Molecules
We have theoretically studied the effect of dissociative autoionization on the photoelectron energy spectrum in (1+2)-photon above threshold ionization (ATI) of H2 molecules. We have considered excitation from the ground XΣg (v = 0, j) state to the doubly excited autoionizing states of Σu and Πu symmetry, via the intermediate resonantBΣu (v = 5, j) states. We have shown that the photoelectron e...
متن کاملCavity Solitons in Driven VCSELs above Threshold
CSs have been theoretically predicted and recently experimentally demonstrated in broad area, vertical cavity driven semiconductor lasers (VCSELs) slightly below the lasing threshold. Above threshold, the simple adiabatic elimination of the polarization variable is not correct, leading to oscillatory instabilities with a spuriously high critical wave-number. To achieve real insight on the compl...
متن کاملPhotoelectron circular dichroism of bicyclic ketones from multiphoton ionization with femtosecond laser pulses.
Photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) is a CD effect up to the ten-percent regime and shows contributions from higher-order Legendre polynomials when multiphoton ionization is compared to single-photon ionization. We give a full account of our experimental methodology for measuring the multiphoton PECD and derive quantitative measures that we apply on camphor, fenchone and norcamphor. Differe...
متن کاملChemi-ionization reactions involving metastable helium atoms at high energy
Total chemi-ionization cross-sections have been measured over the 15 to 1 500 eV energy interval for collisions of He 2 1S and 2 3S metastable atoms with Ne, H2, N2, O2 and CO, using a slow ion measurement technique. With molecular targets these measurements have shown a strong energy dependence for the total ionization cross-section without dissociation. In the case of dissociative ionization ...
متن کاملIonization suppression of excited atomic states beyond the stabilization regime
A two-dimensional model atom is employed to study the ionization behavior of initially excited atomic states in highly-frequent intense laser pulses beyond the dipole approximation. An additional regime of ionization suppression is found at laser intensities where the stabilization effect is expected to break down. The appearance of this effect is due to a strong coupling of the initial wave fu...
