Ultrafast Photoionization Of Ions And Molecules By Orthogonally Polarized Intense Laser Pulses: Effects Of The Time Delay

We present the photoelectron momentum distributions (PMDs) and the photoelectron angular distributions (PADs) of He+ ions, aligned H-2(+) molecules and N-2 molecules by intense orthogonally polarized laser pulses. Simulations are performed by numerically solving the corresponding two-dimensional time-dependent Schrodinger equations (TDSEs) within the single-electron approximation frame. Photoelectron momentum distributions and photoelectron angular distributions present different patterns with the time delays T-d, illustrating the dependences of the PMDs and PADs on the time delays by orthogonally polarized laser pulses. The evolution of the electron wavepackets can be employed to describe the intensity of the PADs from the TDSE simulations for N-2 molecules.
