Field-free molecular orientation by delayed elliptically polarised laser pulses.

A theoretical model of NAREX (non-adiabatic rotational excitation) and field-free molecular orientation by a short specific elliptically polarised laser pulses (EPLPs) driving a polar molecule is presented. By choosing the proper value of elliptically polarised field parameters, efficient field-free orientation could be achieved. It is demonstrated that NAREX can be controlled by various laser parameters, out of which pulse shape plays the most significant role. The effect of elliptic parameter on the rotational excitation and orientation dynamics is also under concern.
