Abstract

Summary form only given. Beginning with first experiments, where the effect of doubly-charged ions formation was discovered, intensive investigations to determine the mechanism leading to the production of doubly-charged ions in different spectral ranges are carried out. The main goal of our work is the creation of conditions for realization of direct two-electron mechanism of Ba/sup 2+/ ions formation in the visible spectral range. The experimental setup consists in following: during ionization of Ba atoms by visible laser radiation we realized strong additional perturbation of atoms by laser radiation of another frequency range.

The two-electron mechanism of the formation of doubly charged ions by the multiphoton ionization of Ba atoms with two-laser radiation

І. І. Бондар, В. В. Суран

The experimental investigation of the formation of doubly charged ions by the multiphoton ionization of Ba atoms by simultaneous irradiation with the fundamental radiation of a colour centres laser (ω = 8800–8880 cm −1 ) and its second harmonics was carried out. A two-electron mechanism was observed to be responsible for the formation of these ions; they are formed as a result of the excitation and subsequent ionization of strongly perturbed states of neutral Ba atoms.

Use of the ac Stark effect to alter the mechanism of formation of doubly charged ions in the ionisation of barium atoms by visible light

І. І. Бондар, В. В. Суран

The influence of an additional perturbation (the ac Stark effect) of neutral barium atoms on the formation of doubly charged ions in the course of ionisation of these atoms by visible light (by the second harmonic radiation of an yttrium-aluminium garnet laser) was investigated experimentally. The frequency-tunable radiation of a colour-centre laser (ω = 8500 — 8950 cm -1 ) was used in these investigations to effect the additional perturbation of barium atoms. It was found that this perturbation changed the mechanism of formation of the doubly charged Ba 2+ ions from a stepwise to a two-electron mechanism. The yield of the Ba 2+ ions increased sharply under these conditions.

Doubly charged ions formation during multiphoton ionization of alkaline-earth atoms

В. В. Суран

The results on investigations of process of doubly-charged ions formation during multiphoton ionization of alkaline-earth elements in visible and infrared spectral ranges are presented. It was established that in visible spectral range step­wise mechanism of doubly-charged ions formation is realized, and in infrared spectral range - two-electron mechanism takes place.

Production of doubly charged ions in the ionisation of Ba atoms in two laser fields

І. І. Бондар, В. В. Суран

The production of doubly charged ions is studied upon multiphoton ionisation of Ba atoms exposed simultaneously to two radiation fields: the fundamental radiation of a colour centre laser (ω = 8800 — 8880 cm -1 ) and its second harmonic. A two-electron mechanism was shown to be responsible for the production of these ions.

Doubly charged ions resulting from the multiphoton atomic ionization of alkaline-earth metals

В. В. Суран, І. І. Бондар

The study of the creation of doubly charged ions upon the laser-induced multiphoton ionization of alkaline-earth metals is reviewed. The results show that the features of the creation of the doubly charged ions depend on the spectral range of the ionizing laser radiation. In the ionization of the alkaline-earth atoms by the visible laser radiation, the cascade creation of the doubly charged ions is predominantly implemented when the ions result from the multiphoton ionization of singly charged ions created in the presence of the same laser pulse. In the multiphoton ionization of the alkaline-earth atoms by the IR laser radiation, the two-electron process occurs when the doubly charged ions are directly created from neutral atoms owing to the ionization via induced resonances with strongly perturbed states of these atoms.
