Rovibrational Formation of Ultracold NaH Molecules Induced by an Ultrashort Laser Pulse

  • The formation of the NaH molecule from unaligned ultracold atoms via photoassociation (PA) is theoretically investigated by numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation including the vibrational and rotational degrees of freedom. The PA processes via one- and two-photon excitations are described. The calculated results show that the associated molecule can be prepared to a desired rovibrational state of the ground electronic state for NaH. Compared with the one-photon association probability, the two-photon association probability is obviously enhanced.
