[Molecular coherent radiation in VUV/XUV regions and the determination of rotational temperature of molecule].
Xiaobo Xie, Ting Sun
The investigation of spectroscopy of vacuum ultraviolet (VUV, 100-200 nm) and extreme ultraviolet (XUV, 10-100 nm) regions has attracted the attention of many researchers in recent years because of its promising applications in such areas as spectroscopy of highly excited states of atoms and molecules, life science, plasma physics and material science. In this paper we report the study of molecular coherent spectrum in the VUV and XUV regions through nonlinear optical processes and the determination of the rotational temperature of molecules. Because molecular gases have abundant energy levels, it can provide resonant levels to enhance the generated radiation and a wide tunibility of the spectrum in VUV and XUV regions. The determination of the rotational temperature of molecules will be very useful for the study of molecular spectroscopy and the nonlinear optical process in VUV/XUV regions.
