J. R. Bochinski, Eric R. Hudson, H. J. Lewandowski, Jun Ye

摘要:

一类特殊的分子,即自由基分子,对分子动力学和化学物理的许多子领域都很重要,现在在实验室框架中享有很大程度的质心运动控制。本文报道的例子涉及羟基自由基(OH),它的内部自由度在超音速膨胀冷却后,已被聚束,加速,并使用随时间变化的非均匀电场减慢。激光诱导荧光沿光束传播路径的原位观测允许详细表征的纵向相空间操纵的OH分子的电场。创建一个脉冲包含1 e3至1 e6分子拥有纵向速度从2到80米/秒左右的平均实验室速度变量从550米/秒到休息,只有几毫米的空间范围代表了一个令人兴奋的和有用的新的实验能力,探索自由基动力学。本文提供了最详细的研究斯塔克减速动力学的日期。

英文摘要:

A special class of molecules that are important to many subfields in molecular dynamics and chemical physics, namely free radical molecules, now enjoy a significant degree of center-of-mass motion control in the laboratory frame. The example reported in this paper concerns hydroxyl radical (OH), which, after the internal degrees of freedom are cooled in a supersonic expansion, has been bunched, accelerated, and slowed using time-varying inhomogeneous electric fields. In situ observations of laser-induced fluorescence along the beam propagation path allows for detailed characterization of the longitudinal phase-space manipulation of OH molecules by the electric fields. The creation of a pulse containing 1e3 to 1e6 molecules possessing a longitudinal velocity spread from 2 to 80 m/s around a mean laboratory velocity variable from 550 m/s to rest with only a few mm spatial extent represents an exciting and useful new experimental capability for exploring free radical dynamics. This paper offers the most detailed study of the Stark deceleration dynamics to date.
