New measurements and global analysis of chloromethane in the region from 0 to 1800cm−1
2003
Abstract New high resolution Fourier transform spectra of pure 12CH335Cl and 12CH337Cl isotopomers of chloromethane have been recorded in Wuppertal covering the region from 600 to 3800 cm−1. New rotational transitions within the v2=1, v5=1, and v3=2 states have been measured at Lille. A first global analysis of the lower four band systems of the molecule (700–1800 cm−1) is reported. The model was based on an effective Hamiltonian and dipole moment expressed in terms of irreducible tensor operators. A common set of 125 effective hamiltonian parameters (sixth order) has been adjusted to fit simultaneously some 11 000 IR data for each of the isotopomers including 153 mm wave data for 12 CH3 35…
The Mainz Cluster Trap
1999
When cluster ions are stored by electromagnetic forces they are available in the gas phase for extended preparations and investigations. Over the last decade a Penning trap (Ion Cyclotron Resonance) apparatus has been constructed and further developed with respect to metal cluster research at the Institute of Physics at Mainz. It allows to capture and accumulate ion bunches injected from an external cluster source and to manipulate the ions’ motion, i.e. select and center the clusters of interest. The interactions that have been investigated include those with inert and chemically reactive gases, photons and electrons. Multiple mass spectrometric steps such as fragment ion selection can be …
Position-sensitive ion detection in precision Penning trap mass spectrometry
2009
A commercial, position-sensitive ion detector was used for the first time for the time-of-flight ion-cyclotron resonance detection technique in Penning trap mass spectrometry. In this work, the characteristics of the detector and its implementation in a Penning trap mass spectrometer will be presented. In addition, simulations and experimental studies concerning the observation of ions ejected from a Penning trap are described. This will allow for a precise monitoring of the state of ion motion in the trap.
High-order harmonic emission from a three-level atom in a laser field
1999
Abstract The spectrum emitted by a three-level atom in the presence of a weak laser field is given together with the population dynamics and the phase of the Fourier transform of the acceleration. Calculations show that the spectrum can be very different from that emitted by a two-level atom. When the trapping conditions are obtained, the coupling to the third level can result in a large change in the spectrum.
Direct excitation of the “dark”b3Πstate predicted by deperturbation analysis of theA1Σ+−b3Πcomplex in KCs
2010
The diode-laser-induced fluorescence spectra $b {}^{3}{\ensuremath{\Pi}}_{\ensuremath{\Omega}=0}^{+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{X}^{ 1}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{+}$ originated from the rovibronic levels of the ``dark'' triplet $b {}^{3}{\ensuremath{\Pi}}_{\ensuremath{\Omega}=0}^{+}$ state of KCs dimers were recorded with a Fourier transform spectrometer with a resolution of 0.03 cm${}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$. Term values of 30 rovibronic levels $({v}_{b0}^{*}\ensuremath{\in}[14,18];{J}^{\ensuremath{'}}\ensuremath{\in}[47,134])$ below the minimum of perturbing $A {}^{1}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{+}$ state were determined with 0.003--0.01 cm${}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ uncertainty. The optimal excitation and dete…
Beam current oscillations driven by cyclotron instabilities in a minimum-Belectron cyclotron resonance ion source plasma
2014
Experimental observation of cyclotron instabilities in a minimum-B confined electron cyclotron resonance ion source plasma is reported. The instabilities are associated with strong microwave emission and a burst of energetic electrons escaping the plasma, and explain the periodic ms-scale oscillation of the extracted beam currents. Such non-linear effects are detrimental for the confinement of highly charged ions due to plasma perturbations at shorter periodic intervals in comparison with their production time. It is shown that the repetition rate of the periodic instabilities in oxygen plasmas increases with increasing magnetic field strength and microwave power and decreases with increasi…
Plasma instability in the afterglow of electron cyclotron resonance discharge sustained in a mirror trap
2012
The work presented in this article is devoted to time-resolved diagnostics of non-linear effects observed during the afterglow plasma decay of a 14 GHz electron cyclotron resonance ion source operated in pulsed mode. Plasma instabilities that cause perturbations of the extracted ion current during the decay were observed and studied. It is shown that these perturbations are associated with precipitation of high energy electrons along the magnetic field lines and strong bursts of bremsstrahlung emission. The effect of ion source settings on the onset of the observed instabilities was investigated. Based on the experimental data and estimated plasma properties, it is assumed that the instabil…
Pulse-frequency-modulated high-frequency-carrier diffractive elements for pattern projection
1994
An efficient two-stage algorithm is presented for the synthesis of high-frequency-carrier diffractive elements. First, an on-axis phase-only stripe-geometry element with an unconstrained profile along each stripe is designed by an iterative Fourier transform algorithm. In the second stage, a steep linear phase term is added, and the profile is hard-clipped along each stripe. The result is a binary, pulse-frequency-modulated element suitable, e.g. , for a resonance-domain realization, which permits the elimination of the twin image. Experimental results are provided by direct-write electron-beam lithography and optical lithography, using both fully and partially coherent illumination.
Zone plates with cells apodized by Legendre profiles
1990
By apodizing the cells of a zone plate and changing the opening ratio, it is possible to shape the relative power spectrum of its foci. We describe a novel procedure that leads to an analytical formula for shaping the focus power spectrum by using apodizers expressible as the Legendre series; these act on cells of arbitrary opening ratio. Our general result is used to design zone plates that have missing foci and to discuss a synthesis procedure using apodizers with various opening ratios. Our applications can also be used for shaping the power spectrum of 1-D gratings.
White-light Fourier transformer with low chromatic aberration.
1992
A simple Fourier transformation system working with broadband parallel illumination is presented. The proposed setup, consisting of two on-axis zone plates and an achromatic objective, allows us to obtain the achromatic Fourier transform representation of the input at a finite distance with a low chromatic aberration. The discussion of the system, using the Fresnel diffraction theory, leads to an analytical expression to evaluate the transversal and longitudinal chromatic aberrations. It is shown that the resulting chromatic aberrations for typical values of the involved parameters are less than 1% over the entire visible spectrum.
