Energy- and angle-resolved coherent control on photoelectron dynamics by a directionality orthogonal double-slit interferometry.

We propose a directionality orthogonal double-slit interferometry to control photoelectron dynamics in energy- and angle-resolved fashion. The two orthogonal components of polarization-skewed (PS) laser pulse, in which the total polarization vector rotates as time evolves, can be regarded as the double-slit in the time domain. Our results demonstrate that the peak splitting and shift in photoelectron momentum distributions can be controlled by the relative optical phase between two components of the PS pulse.

Time Delays as Attosecond Probe of Interelectronic Coherence and Entanglement.

Attosecond chronoscopy enables the exploration of correlated electron dynamics in real time. One key observable of attosecond physics is the determination of "time zero" of photoionization, the time delay with which the wave packet of the ionized electron departs from the ionic core. This observable has become accessible by experimental advances in attosecond streaking and reconstruction of attosecond beating by interference of two-photon transitions (RABBIT) techniques.

Photon Momentum Transfer in Single-Photon Double Ionization of Helium.

We theoretically and experimentally investigate the photon momentum transfer in single-photon double ionization of helium at various large photon energies. We find that the forward shifts of the momenta along the light propagation of the two photoelectrons are roughly proportional to their fraction of the excess energy. The mean value of the forward momentum is about 8/5 of the electron energy divided by the speed of light.

Two-Electron Interference in Strong-Field Ionization of He by a Short Intense Extreme Ultraviolet Laser Pulse.

Double ionization of helium by a single intense (above 10^{18}  W/cm^{2}) linearly polarized extreme ultraviolet laser pulse is studied by numerically solving the full-dimensional time-dependent Schrödinger equation. For the laser intensities well beyond the perturbative limit, novel gridlike interference fringes are found in the correlated energy spectrum of the two photoelectrons. The interference can be traced to the multitude of two-electron wave packets emitted at different ionization times.

Dynamic interference as signature of atomic stabilization.

We study the ionization of atoms by very intense linearly polarized pulse with moderately high frequency by numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE). In this regime, the photon energy exceeds the ionization potential allowing for one-photon ionization which is, however, strongly influenced by strong nonlinear photon-atom interactions. We find that the onset of atomic stabilization can be monitored by the appearance of a dynamic interference pattern in the photoelectron spectrum.

Efficient Split-Lanczos propagator for strong-field ionization of atoms.

High angular momentum partial waves are indispensable in the numerical calculations of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) for the interaction between atoms and strong long-wavelength laser pulses. In these cases, the widely-applied Lanczos propagator, used to solve the TDSE, requires an extremely small time step to be convergent. By splitting out the centrifugal potential from the whole Hamiltonian, we demonstrate that the stiffness of the TDSE can be reduced and a rather large time step is allowed for the present Split-Lanczos propagator.

Virtual Sequential Picture for Nonsequential Two-Photon Double Ionization of Helium.

By using a model based on the second-order time-dependent perturbation theory, we show that the nonsequential two-photon double ionization of He can be understood in a virtual sequential picture: to excite the final double continuum state |k_{1},k_{2}⟩ by absorbing two photons from the ground state |1s^{2},^{1}S_{0}⟩, the single continuum states |1s,k_{1}⟩ and |1s,k_{2}⟩ serve as the dominant intermediate states. This virtual sequential picture is verified by the perfect agreement of the total ionization cross section, respectively, calculated by this model and by the sophisticated numerical solution to the full-dimensional time-dependent Schrödinger equation. This model, without the consideration of the electron correlation in the final double continuum state, works well for a wide range of laser parameters extending from the nonsequential to the sequential regime.

Mimotope selection of blood group A antigen from a phage display 15-mer peptide library.

We select the peptide mimics of blood group A antigen by a monoclonal anti-A from a phage display 15-mer peptide library. Monoclonal anti-A was used in biopanning a phage display 15-mer peptide library. After four rounds of panning, ELISA was carried out to confirm the positive phage clones.
