Strong-Field Correlation Imaging: Revealing Molecular Geometries, Orientation and Dynamics

  • Chapter
Progress in Ultrafast Intense Laser Science Volume I

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Chemical Physics ((PUILS,volume 84))

Summary

A review of several correlation techniques used to extract quantitative information from two-dimensional images obtained with fast-frame CCD cameras is presented. Three examples are discussed that demonstrate the power of these techniques for revealing field-induced dynamics: (1) the relative probability for Coulomb explosions of CO 6+2 as a function of the angle between the molecular and polarization axes; (2) the relative probability for Coulomb explosion of CO 6+2 and NO 6+2 as a function of bond angle and (3) the kinetic energy release and its ability to distinguish enhanced ionization from screening.
