摘要:

分子的光解离产生由分子结构和解离光的特性决定的光碎片的空间分布。在超冷温度下进行这种基本的化学反应,使其量子力学特征占主导地位。在这种情况下,可以使用弱的外加场来控制反应。在这里,我们光解超冷双原子锶在磁场低于10 G,并观察到惊人的变化,光碎片角分布。这些观察结果与多通道量子化学模型在定性上非常一致,该模型包括非绝热效应并预测了光碎片能量连续体中分波的强混合。该实验通过对分子的精确量子态控制来实现。

英文摘要:

Photodissociation of a molecule produces a spatial distribution of photofragments determined by the molecular structure and the characteristics of the dissociating light. Performing this basic chemical reaction at ultracold temperatures allows its quantum mechanical features to dominate. In this regime, weak applied fields can be used to control the reaction. Here, we photodissociate ultracold diatomic strontium in magnetic fields below 10 G and observe striking changes in photofragment angular distributions. The observations are in excellent qualitative agreement with a multichannel quantum chemistry model that includes nonadiabatic effects and predicts strong mixing of partial waves in the photofragment energy continuum. The experiment is enabled by precise quantum-state control of the molecules.
