Ionization and Dissociation Dynamic of H2 Molecule Driven by a Laser Field

2007

We study the single and double ionization yields and the dissociation dynamics of a onedimensional two-electron molecule exposed to an intense laser pulse. The double ionization yields are systematically investigated for both fixed and moveable nuclei. At low intensities the ionization curves have a power law shape, followed by a knee profile for higher intensities. A temporal correlation between the nuclear motion and the electron ionization shows that the nuclear motion deeply affects the ionization yield.
