Excitation of atom in target state by high-power pulses of laser radiation
Savva V.A., Dolya Z.E., Mazurenko A.S.
In principle, a possibility has been shown to excite an atom on target level selectively and very fast with the use of high-power laser pulses. For this aim the effect of ultrafast selective excitation which was reveiled earlier for vibrational levels of a molecule can be used. The example Li atom is considered. Some pulses with different frequencies should be used to excite an atom on high energy levels.
