We show experimentally and theoretically that a polarization-shaped femtosecond laser pulse with a zero net angular momentum creates a net angular momentum in atomic rubidium during resonant two-photon excitation. The necessary conditions for the creation of a nonzero angular momentum as well as the excitation efficiencies are analyzed in the framework of second-order time-dependent perturbation theory.
我们通过实验和理论证明,在共振双光子激发过程中,具有零净角动量的偏振整形飞秒激光脉冲会在原子铷中产生净角动量。我们在二阶含时微扰理论框架下分析了产生非零角动量的必要条件以及激发效率。
