Controlling the angular momentum composition of a Rydberg electron wave packet
Physical review letters, 2002•APS
Sequences of phase-locked laser pulses have been employed to control the orbital angular
momentum character of an electron wave packet, which is initially created from a
superposition of s and d Rydberg series. By an intelligent choice of phase, which depends
on the excitation energy and the quantum defects, we are able to selectively pump down
either all or a fraction of one or other angular momentum component, and by employing
multichannel quantum-defect theory we are able to analyze the quantum-state distribution in …
