Determination of structure parameters in strong-field ionization models of atoms

The Ammosov-Delone-Krainov (ADK) and Perelomov-Popov-Terent'ev (PPT) ionization models were widely used in strong-field physics and attosecond science due to their many attractive advantages such as simpler analytical formula, less computational demands, and satisfied accuracy of ionization rate. Based on the density-functional theory, we systematically determine accurate structure parameters of 25 atoms, 24 positive ions and 13 negative ions and tabulate for future applications. The wave function with correct asymptotic behavior is obtained by solving the time-independent Schrodinger equation with B-spline basis sets and the accurate structure parameters are extracted from this wave function in the asymptotic region. The accuracies of structure parameters are carefully examined by comparing the ionization probabilities (or yields) calculated by PPT and ADK models with those of solving the three-dimensional time-dependent Schrodinger equation and the experimental data.
