Observation of the Stark effect in upsilon(+)=0 Rydberg states of NO: a comparison between predissociating and bound states
The Stark spectra of Rydberg states of NO below the ?+ = 0 ionization limit, with principal quantum numbers n = 25–30, have been investigated in the presence of dc electric fields in the range 0–150 V cm?1. The Stark states were accessed by two-colour, double-resonance excitation via the ?' = 0, N' = 0 rovibrational state of the A2?+ state. The N(2D) atoms produced by predissociation were measured by (2 + 1) resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization, and compared with pulsed-field ionization spectra of the bound Rydberg state population (Patel et al 2007 J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 40 1369).

Abstract

The Stark spectra of Rydberg states of NO below the ?+ = 0 ionization limit, with principal quantum numbers n = 25–30, have been investigated in the presence of dc electric fields in the range 0–150 V cm?1. The Stark states were accessed by two-colour, double-resonance excitation via the ?' = 0, N' = 0 rovibrational state of the A2?+ state. The N(2D) atoms produced by predissociation were measured by (2 + 1) resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization, and compared with pulsed-field ionization spectra of the bound Rydberg state population (Patel et al 2007 J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 40 1369).
