Abstract

With wavefunctions from a kind of atomic potential model including the fine-structure (FS) interaction as a basis, we calculate the positions and widths of anticrossings due to the FS interaction for the case of K Rydberg states in a static electrical field by using the diagonalization method. The results are in good agreement with experimental data; and we confirm that the influence of the FS interaction is very small on anticrossing brought about by core interaction. The accuracy of the potential model wavefunction including the FS interaction is sensitively and numerically tested in the situation of external fields.

Positions and widths for anticrossings of potassium Rydberg Stark states

Yong Li, Wenyu Liu, Baiwen Li

Numerical calculations of the positions and widths for anticrossings in Rydberg Stark states are scarce, largely due to the results' sensitive dependence on the wavefunctions chosen. With wavefunctions derived from a kind of potential model as a basis, we calculate the positions and sizes for the anticrossings of potassium Rydberg states in a static electric field by means of diagonalization, and show that the results are in good agreement with available experimental data. The results show that this potential model can be used to deal with the problem of anticrossings, and the accuracy of the potential model is sensitively and numerically tested in the situation of external fields for the first time.

Xiaoyong Li, Cheng Jin, Zhou Xiaoxin

With a potential model of alkali-metal atoms and B-spline expansion technique,the structure of the energy levels for Rydberg states of Rubidium is investigated.We calculated the positions and widths of anticrossing between(n+3)s and (n,k) Stark states with principal quantum number n between 16 and 25.Our results are in agreement with the experimental data.And we obtained two empirical formulas which can be used to estimate the positions of anticrossing for high Rydberg states of Rubidium in static electric field.

The potential model investigation of Stark effect in caesium Rydberg state atoms and comparison with experiment

Zhengfa Hu, Zhao Hong-tai, Zhou Shi-Kang +2 more

The potential model method for computation of Stark structure of Cs Rydberg states atoms and oscillator strength is described, for external electric fields varying from 0 to 600V/cm. Anticrossing, l -mixing and n -mixing phenomena are observed clearly from the map of Stark. Corresponding experiment is performed under the same condition, and the two results are in good agreement with each other within the experimental uncertainty.

A novel method for the calculation of widths for avoided crossings of the highly excited Stark states: detailed implementation for alkali-metal atoms

Yong-Lin He

We have presented a novel method to calculate the widths of the avoided crossings of Rydberg states in a static electric field. The widths of avoided crossings can be decided not directly connected by scanning the static field, but indirectly connected through the Stark electric dipole moments. The method is restricted to the case in which both the two relevant states have linear Stark shifts or only one of the two involved states has linear Stark shifts, but another has no Stark shift. As test examples, we calculated the widths of avoided crossings of Li, Na and K. The Stark electric dipole moments are determined by using the Stark state wavefunctions which are obtained from the diagonalization method at a fixed static electric field amplitude. The results are in excellent agreement with experimental and other theoretical data.

Calculation of anticrossing signals based on the full fine-structure system

G.G. Tepehan

The anticrossing signal shape was calculated on the basis of the full fine-structure system. The shapes, widths, crossing centres and Stark constants derived from this calculation are compared with the experimental results of n=4 of He+. The result shows good agreement with the experiment on the general behaviour of the signals but not on the crossing centres. The current results for the crossing centres and the Stark constants are in good agreement with previous calculations which were based on two-level systems.
