On the two-photon ionisation of atomic caesium via quadrupole 6D3/2-6D5/2resonances: fine-structure effects and electron spin polarisation

The two-photon ionisation of caesium atoms in the spin-orbit coupling scheme is analysed when one uses the electric dipole plus quadrupole approximations. The electron spin polarisation is obtained on the allowed quadrupole resonances 6D 3/2 -6D 5/2 . Comparison with experimental results is made and a final discussion is presented.

Differential electron spin polarisation effects in the two-photon ionisation of atomic caesium

A. Declémy, M. Jaouen, A. Rachman +1 more

The two-photon ionisation of atomic caesium from the ground state irradiated with monochromatic circularly polarised radiation is analyzed theoretically in the framework of spin-orbit coupling, which leads to the existence of a differential spin polarisation of the ejected electrons in the z direction. This may give important information about the intermediate resonances and also for the off-resonant region where multiphoton ionisation takes place through intermediate virtual transitions. The essential features of differential spin polarisation are studied and the analysis of the results leads to the suggestion that it should be possible to obtain highly polarised electrons according to the properties of the incident radiation used.

The 6s-6d quadrupole resonances in two-photon ionisation of caesium. Measurement of ion asymmetry and spin polarisation

H Kaminski, Joachim Keßler, K J Kollath

In the two-photon ionisation of Cs atoms resonances may be expected which correspond to a quadrupole 6s-nd transition associated with the first photon. At the 6D 5/2 and 6D 3/2 resonances the ratio of photoionisation cross sections for circularly polarised and for linearly polarised light (ion asymmetry) and the spin polarisation of the photoelectrons ejected by circularly polarised light have been measured. The ratios of the radial transition matrix elements from the 6D to the epsilon P and epsilon F continuum states were derived from the experimental results.
