Understanding single-color multiphoton ionization spectra by pump–probe technique
K. Dasgupta, K. G. Manohar, P.N. Bajaj +4 more
A simple but elegant spectroscopic technique using two narrow-band dye lasers has been demonstrated for analyzing single-color resonant multi-photon-ionization spectra of atoms. This technique provides a direct identification of the starting level of the multi-photon-ionization pathway. This method can also be used to determine intermediate levels, which play an important role in the ionization process. Some typical results for uranium are presented.
