摘要
We study the interplay of vibrational and rotational excitation in a diatomic molecule due to the non-resonant dynamic Stark effect. With a fixed peak intensity, optimal Gaussian pulse durations for maximizing vibrational or rotational transitions are obtained analytically and confirmed numerically for the H-2 and Cl-2 molecules. In general, pulse trains or more advanced pulse shaping techniques are required in order to obtain significant vibrational excitation. To that end, we demonstrate that a high degree of selectivity between vibrational and rotational excitation is possible with a suitably phase-modulated Gaussian pulse. (C) 2017 Elsevier B. V.
