Abstract:
Based on an approximate solution of the Schrödinger equation, the effect that a pair of extremely short small-amplitude subcycle pulses has on a quantum system is studied. It is shown that, if the pulses are shorter than the inverse frequencies of atomic transitions, the probability of transitions between levels is determined by the electric area of the pulses and the time delay between them. As a consequence, a unipolar pulse can more efficiently affect the system than a bipolar one, while a sequence of pulses realizes a selective action on quantum objects, despite a nonresonant character of the interaction.
Keywords:
extremely short pulses, unipolar pulses, attosecond pulses.
The investigation of the possibility of ultrafast control of the state of a medium using a pair of pulses was financially supported by a grant from the Russian Science Foundation, project no. 19-72-00012. The study of the role played by the electric area in the interaction was supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research, project no. 19-02-00312a.
