Popis: | The interaction is studied of a Gaussian pulsed or a continuous wave (CW) electric field with a molecule that has a nonzero difference d between the permanent dipoles of the ground and excited states involved in a transition. The unusual spectral effects associated with the transition with d ≠ 0, relative to the often studied case with d = 0, have been investigated previously in the two-level approximation and for continuous wave lasers. The observation of these effects, including markedly increased periods of excited state populations and negative Bloch-Siegart shifts, will often require the intense fields associated with pulsed rather than purely continuous wave electric fields. Transitions induced by continuous wave and pulsed laser-‘permanent dipole molecule’ interactions, for high field intensities and varying pulse durations, are investigated with model calculations carried out using exact Floquet and symmetry-adapted Riemann product integral methods. These calculations illustrate how the increased ... |
