Non-adiabatic Strong Field Ionization of Atomic Hydrogen


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We present experimental data on the non-adiabatic strong field ionization of atomic hydrogen using elliptically polarized femtosecond laser pulses at a central wavelength of 390 nm. Our measured results are in very good agreement with a numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation (TDSE). Experiment and TDSE show four above-threshold ionization (ATI) peaks in the electrons energy spectrum. The most probable emission angle (also known as attoclock-offset angle or streaking angle) is found to increase with energy, a trend that is opposite to standard predictions based on Coulomb interaction with the ion. We show that this increase of deflection-angle can be explained by a model that includes non-adiabatic corrections of the initial momentum distribution at the tunnel exit and non-adiabatic corrections of the tunnel exit position itself.
