T. Frohnmeyer et al., Mapping molecular dynamics (Na-2) in intense laser fields: another dimension to femtochemistry, CHEM P LETT, 312(5-6), 1999, pp. 447-454
Time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy in combination with femtosecond pu
mp-probe and molecular beam techniques is used to map the vibrational wavep
acket motion along the internuclear coordinate. Using an attenuated femtose
cond pump pulse and a probe pulse with variable intensity, the influence of
high laser fields on the molecular potential is detected sensitive to the
internuclear distance. We observe electronic transitions at non-Franck-Cond
on allowed areas which are attributed to light-induced potentials. (C) 1999
