Abstract

In this work, the multiphoton scattering of ultra–short electromagnetic field pulses (USP) on a linear chain consisting of identical atoms is investigated. It is shown that when scattering it is necessary to take into account multiphoton processes

Quantum theory of scattering of ultrashort electromagnetic field pulses by polyatomic structures

Dmitry N. Makarov

. Various biomolecules, nanosystems and polyatomic structures can consist of such a number of atoms. This is especially important because experiments are currently being conducted with such structures at the present time using high-power ultrashort laser pulses. It is shown that the developed theory in limiting cases turns into well-known approaches of single-photon and multi-photon theories.

Reemission spectra and interference effects at the interaction of multiatomic targets with ultrashort electromagnetic pulses

V. I. Matveev, Davron U. Matrasulov

The processes of reemission of ultrashort electromagnetic pulses by linear chains consisting of isolated multielectron atoms have been considered. The developed method makes it possible to accurately take into account the spatial inhomogeneity of the field of an ultrashort pulse and the momenta of photons in reemission processes. The angular distributions of reemission spectra have been obtained for an arbitrary number of atoms in a chain. It has been shown that the interference of the photon emission amplitudes leads to the appearance of characteristic “diffraction” maxima. The results allow standard generalization to the cases of rescattering from two-dimensional (graphene-like) and three-dimensional lattices, as well as to the case of the inclusion of thermal vibrations of the atoms of lattices.

Nonlinear scattering of ultrashort laser pulses on two-level system

Valery Alexandrovich Astapenko, Sergey V. Sakhno

The presentation is devoted to the theoretical investigation of nonlinear scattering of ultrashort electromagnetic pulses (USP) on two-level quantum system. We consider the scattering of several types of USP, namely, so called corrected Gaussian pulse (CGP) and cosine wavelet pulse. Such pulses have no constant component in their spectrum in contrast with traditional Gaussian pulse. It should be noted that the presence of constant component in the limit of ultrashort pulse durations leads to unphysical results. The main purpose of the present work is the investigation of the change of pulse temporal shape after scattering as a function of initial phase at different distances from the target. Numerical calculations are based on the solution of Bloch equations and expression for scattering field strength via dipole moment of two-level system exposed by the action of incident USP. In our calculation we also account for the influence of refracting index of the air on electric field strength in the pulse after scattering.

Non-linear excitation of atoms by ultrashort electromagnetic pulses

Valery Alexandrovich Astapenko, Sergey V. Sakhno

The development of methods of generation of ultrashort pulses (USP) of femto- and attosecond duration ranges with controlled parameters necessitates the theoretical study of features of their interaction with a matter [1]. Among such features that do not exist in case of “long” pulses should first of all be the nonlinear dependence of the photoprocess probability W on the USP duration (τ) [2] as well as the dependence on the carrier phase with respect to the pulse envelope (φ) [3-4]. It should be noted that if the dependence of the probability W on the phase φ manifests itself either only for very short pulses, when ωτ < 1 (ω is carrier frequency of the pulse), or in case of a nonlinear photoprocess [3], the function W(τ) can differ from a linear function in the limit ωτ> 1 too for fields of moderate strength, when the perturbation theory is applicable [2].

Peculiarities of matter excitation by ultra-short electromagnetic pulses

Valery Alexandrovich Astapenko

The paper is devoted to theoretical analysis of matter excitation by ultra-short electromagnetic pulses (USP) with controllable shape in the frame of perturbation approach. We calculate the dependence of the total probability of photo-absorption of USP by an atom upon the pulse duration. It is shown that investigated probability has characteristic features which depend upon phase parameters of USP.

Multiphoton processes in molecules with excited vibrational squeezed states in a strong electromagnetic field

V.A. Kovarsky, Alexandr V. Belousov, O. B. Prepelitsa +1 more

The preparation of the squeezed vibrational states in molecules may be realized due to excitation by short intensive electromagnetic pulses or by means of hot proton impact. New types of multiphoton processes have appeared: the combined multiphoton-multivibron processes, the intensity of such type transitions are apparently depended on parameters of squeezed vibrational states. The multiphoton excitation, high harmonic generation and light scattering processes in molecules are analyzed.
