Spectroscopic properties of the molecular ions BeX+ (X=Na, K, Rb): forming cold molecular ions from an ion–atom mixture by stimulated Raman adiabatic process

Hela Ladjimi, Dibyendu Sardar, Mohamed Farjallah +5 more

In this theoretical work, we calculate potential energy curves, spectroscopic parameters and transition dipole moments of molecular ions BeX+ (X=Na, K, Rb) composed of alkaline ion Be and alkali atom X with a quantum chemistry approach based on the pseudopotential model, Gaussian basis sets, effective core polarisation potentials and full configuration interaction. We study in detail collisions of the alkaline ion and alkali atom in quantum regime. Besides, we study the possibility of the formation of molecular ions from the ion–atom colliding systems by stimulated Raman adiabatic process and discuss the parameters regime under which the population transfer is feasible. Our results are important for ion–atom cold collisions and experimental realisation of cold molecular ion formation.

Interactions and low-energy collisions between an alkali ion and an alkali atom of a different nucleus

Arpita Rakshit, Chedli Ghanmi, Hamid Berriche +1 more

Abstract We study theoretically interaction potentials and low-energy collisions between different alkali atoms and alkali ions. Specifically, we consider systems such as X + Y + , where X( Y + ) is either Li(Cs + ) or Cs(Li + ), Na(Cs + ) or Cs(Na + ) and Li(Rb + ) or Rb(Li + ). We calculate the molecular potentials of the ground and first two excited states of these three systems using a pseudopotential method and compare our results with those obtained by others. We derive ground-state scattering wave functions and analyze the cold collisional properties of these systems for a wide range of energies. We find that, in order to get convergent results for the total scattering cross sections for energies of the order 1 K, one needs to take into account at least 60 partial waves. The low-energy scattering properties calculated in this paper may serve as a precursor for experimental exploration of quantum collisions between an alkali atom and an alkali ion of a different nucleus.
