Geometric phases for laser-induced aligned pendular states of linear molecules

Geometric phases for laser-induced aligned pendular states of linear molecules

Geometric phases may arise in a linear molecule interacting via its anisotropic polarizability with a strong nonresonant laser field. When the polarization vector of laser radiation undergoes cyclic evolution, the molecule returns to its original state but may acquire a Berry or Aharonov-Anandan pha...

Zusammenfassung:Geometric phases may arise in a linear molecule interacting via its anisotropic polarizability with a strong nonresonant laser field. When the polarization vector of laser radiation undergoes cyclic evolution, the molecule returns to its original state but may acquire a Berry or Aharonov-Anandan phase factor.
