Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Multi-photon absorption processes of atoms in intense short-wavelength laser fields has been studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. We have applied the magnetic bottle electron spectroscopic method, to achieve effective photoelectron spectroscopic researches with light sources of ultra intense and high photon energy. We have studied the three-photon double ionization of Ar in intense extreme ultraviolet free-electron laser fields over a photon energy range of 19.6-22.0 eV. It is found that the double ionization to Ar2+ proceeds sequentially via the formation of singly charged Ar+ states and is enhanced around photon energies of 20.5 and 21.5 eV. Two types of resonances are identified in the two-photon ionization of the Ar+ states: (i) resonances to intermediate states at the one-photon energy level and (ii) those to autoionizing states above the Ar2+ ionization threshold.
