Öğe Energy and angular distributions of electrons from sodium atoms photo-ionized with femtosecond laser pulses(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2021) Boran, Y.; Hart, N.; Kaya, Necati; Zhou, J.; Kolomenskii, A. A.; Schuessler, H. A.We studied photoelectron angular distributions (PADs) and energy spectra of sodium atoms photo-ionized with intense short laser pulses in the near-infrared region. Energy spectra of photoelectrons due to multistep ionization of sodium atoms through intermediate levels 5p, 6p, 7p, and 4f were observed in above threshold ionization (ATI) at laser intensities of 2 × 1013 W cm−2 and 1 × 1013 W cm−2. The PADs from the 5p(4f) state for zero, first, second and third order ATI peaks were measured. We observed that for the two selected laser intensities the angular distribution of photoelectrons showed only slight variations. The PADs exhibit main lobes within ∼60◦ degrees from the laser polarization and additional lobes that become more pronounced with the increasing ATI peak number. Besides a general analytical representation of the observed angular dependences, the experimental PADs for each ATI peak were fitted with Legendre polynomials accounting for different ionization channels. The good agreement between the experimental data and fitting functions allowed to evaluate the contributions of the ionization channels to the observed ATI orders. The calculations of the photoelectron spectra by numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation in a single active electron approximation produced agreement with the experiment in the main features of the spectra, while differences in more subtle details were observed.Öğe Time slicing in 3D momentum imaging of the hydrogen molecular ion photo-fragmentation(Amer Inst Physics, 2017) Kaya, N.; Kaya, G.; Pham, F. V.; Strohaber, J.; Kolomenskii, A. A.; Schuessler, H. A.Photo-fragmentation of the hydrogen molecular ion was investigated with 800 nm, 50 fs laser pulses by employing a time slicing 3D imaging technique that enables the simultaneous measurement of all three momentum components which are linearly related with the pixel position and slicing time. This is done for each individual product particle arriving at the detector. This mode of detection allows us to directly measure the three-dimensional fragment momentum vector distribution without having to rely on mathematical reconstruction methods, which additionally require the investigated system to be cylindrically symmetric. We experimentally reconstruct the laser-induced photo-fragmentation of the hydrogen molecular ion. In previous experiments, neutral molecules were used as a target, but in this work, performed with molecular ions, the initial vibrational level populations are well-defined after electron bombardment, which facilitates the interpretation. We show that the employed time-slicing technique allows us to register the fragment momentum distribution that reflects the initial molecular states with greater detail, revealing features that were concealed in the full time-integrated distribution on the detector.
