Electrostatic Trapping of N2 Molecules in High Rydberg States

M. H. Rayment, S. D. Hogan

N_{2} molecules traveling in pulsed supersonic beams have been excited from their X ^{1}Σ_{g}^{+} ground electronic state to long-lived Rydberg states with principal quantum numbers between 39 and 48 using a resonance-enhanced two-color three-photon excitation scheme. The Rydberg states populated had static electric dipole moments exceeding 5000 D which allowed deceleration of the molecules to rest in the laboratory-fixed frame of reference and three-dimensional trapping using inhomogeneous electric fields. The trapped molecules were confined for up to 10 ms, with effective trap decay time constants increasing with principal quantum number, and ranging from 450 to 700 μs. These observations, and comparison with the results of similar measurements with He atoms, indicate that the decay dynamics of the trapped Rydberg N_{2} molecules are dominated by spontaneous emission and do not exhibit significant contributions from effects of intramolecular interactions that lead to non-radiative decay.

Quantum Electrodynamics of the Stimulated Emission of Radiation. I

R.M. Bevensee

The quantum electrodynamic formalism of Senitzky is developed so as to yield long-time differential equations for the time-average expectation values of electric field energy and excess molecular population in a system composed of one resonant cavity mode, two-level molecules, and a dissipation mechanism. The cavity-mode resonant frequency is essentially the mean molecular transition frequency of either a Gaussian or Lorentzian distribution of transition frequencies. The intermolecular and lattice T1 and T2 time constants are assumed to be much longer than the stimulated emission period. The field is coupled to either the electric or the magnetic dipole moments of the molecules. Senitzky's papers are summarized and the relevant expressions for the Heisenberg field and molecular operators are listed. Modified time-average expressions are obtained for the presence of a transient coherent driving field and perhaps an ``off-resonance'' molecular distribution of transition frequencies. Time averages of the derivatives of various terms in the expected field energy are compared to derivatives of time averages of those terms. Well-behaved differential equations are obtained for the time-average expectation values of field energy and molecular excess population, justified on a long-time basis by the application of an intermittent similarity transformation. A differential equation for the time-average dispersion (second moment) of electric field energy is obtained, which indicates that the relative dispersion tends to decrease during the pumping interval and increase back to the thermal value during the emission interval. Energy transfer from pumping field to molecules to the resonant field during the pumping interval is described qualitatively. The direct-product form for the density matrix ρ = ρ(field) × ρ(molecules) × ρ(dissipation mechanism) is justified by maximum-entropy inference. In conclusion, the equations of motion for the time-average expectation values of field energy and molecular population are interpreted so as to explain the envelope modulation of a solid-state laser beam during the emission period.
