Development of Carrier-Envelope-Phase-Stabilized, mJ-Class Laser Sources Generating Intense, Few-Cycle Laser Pulses
(2020-05-19)
Over a decade ago the frontiers of ultrashort physics and nonlinear optics have reached the attosecond timescale ($1 as = 10 ^ {-18} s$) . Currently, in order to generate isolated attosecond pulses, an intense femtosecond pulse is focused in a jet of a noble gas. Given the sufficient intensity, this leads to high harmonic generation (HHG), which can be filtered (gated) to create a single isolated attosecond pulse. The laser source for the driver pulses has to fulfill two requirements: the pulses need to be limited ...

Chiral recognition in the gas phase using femtosecond to nanosecond photoelectron circular dichroism
(2020-05)
Diese Arbeit konzentriert sich auf die chirale Erkennung in der Gasphase unter Verwendung der resonant verstärkten Multi-Photonen-Ionisation. Gasphasentechniken bieten die Möglichkeit, die Chiralität von Molekülen innerhalb einer nahezu interaktionsfreien Umgebung zu untersuchen. Photoionisation von chiralen Molekülen mit zirkular polarisiertem Licht führt zu einer Asymmetrie in der Photoelektronenemission bezüglich der Ausbreitungsrichtung des ionisierenden Lichts. Diese Asymmetrie ist bekannt als Photoelektronenz ...

Energy transfer in free-standing van der Waals heterostructures after optical excitation
(2019)
The wide range of layered van der Waals materials is interesting due to its plenty of deviating characteristics. The structure of all these materials is built from covalently joined layers, which are stacked by van der Waals forces. Aside from this structural similarity the specific characteristics spread out in a variety of electronic and optical properties. The electronic properties of layered materials vary from pure insulators to metallic conductors and can even depend on the number of layers. In the work presented ...

Optimierung der laserinduzierten Plasmaspektroskopie an Metallen durch Femtosekunden-Doppelpulse für die Entwicklung eines hochauflösenden 3D-Rasterabbildungsverfahrens
(2015-03-05)
Die laserinduzierte Plasmaspektroskopie (LIPS) ist eine spektrochemische Elementanalyse zur Bestimmung der atomaren Zusammensetzung einer beliebigen Probe. Für die Analyse ist keine spezielle Probenpräparation nötig und kann unter atmosphärischen Bedingungen an Proben in jedem Aggregatzustand durchgeführt werden. Femtosekunden Laserpulse bieten die Vorteile einer präzisen Ablation mit geringem thermischen Schaden sowie einer hohen Reproduzierbarkeit. Damit ist fs-LIPS ein vielversprechendes Werkzeug für die Mikroanalyse ...

Femtosecond probing of sodium cluster ion Na_n ^+ fragmentation
(1992)
We report on the first femtosecond time-resolved experiments in cluster physics. The photofragmentation
dynamics of small sodium cluster ions Na_n ^+ have been studied with pump-probe techniques. Ultrashort
laser pulses of 60-fs duration are employed to photoionize the sodium clusters and to probe the
photofragments. We find that the ejection of neutral dimer Na_2 and, observed for the first time, neutral
trimer Na_3 photofragments occur on ultrashort time scales of 2.5 and 0.4 ps, respectively. This and the
absence ...

Femtosecond time-resolved molecular multiphoton ionization: the Na_2 system
(1991)
We report here the first experimental study of femtosecond time-resolved molecular multiphoton ionization.
Femtosecond pump-probe techniques are combined with time-of-flight spectroscopy to measure
transient ionization spectra of Na_2 in a molecular-beam experiment. The wave-packet motions in
different molecular potentials show that incoherent contributions from direct photoionization of a singly
excited state and from excitation and autoionization of a bound doubly excited molecular state determine
the observed ...

Femtosecond pump-probe study of the spreading and recurrence of a vibrational wave packet in Na_2
(1992)
The motion of a vibrational wave packet in the bound A(^1 \summe^+_u) electronic state of the sodium dimer is detected in a femtosecond pump/probe molecular beam experiment. For short times harmonic motion is seen in the total ion yield of Na^+_2 as a function of delay time between the two laser pulses. The spreading of the wave packet results in the loss of the periodic variation of the ion signal. For longer delay times (47 ps) the wave packet regains its initial form which is reflected in the revival structure of ...

Autoionization and fragmentation of Na_2 studied by femtosecond laser pulses

Femtosecond spectroscopy of molecular autoionization and fragmentation
(1990)
Femtosecond laser pulses are applied to the study of the dynamics and the pathways of multiphoton-induced ionization, autoionization, and fragmentation of Na_2 in molecular-beam experiments. In particular,
we report on first results obtained studying electronic autoionization (leading to Na_2{^+} + {e ^-}) and
autoionization-induced fragmentation (leading to Na{^+} + Na + {e ^-}) of a bound doubly excited molecular state. The final continuum states are analyzed by photoelectron spectroscopy and by measuring the ...
