Summary: | The interaction between the CF<sub>2</sub>Br<sub>2</sub> molecule and 800/400 nm intense femtosecond laser fields is investigated by direct current (dc) sliced velocity mapping imaging implementation. By analyzing the kinetic energy release distribution and angular distribution of fragment ions, the dissociation channels along C-Br bond cleavage have been determined. The isotropic structure of the angular distribution for CF<sub>2</sub>Br<sup>+</sup> ions is attributed to the coupling between the excited states. Additionally, a unique elimination channel of CF<sub>2</sub>Br<sub>2</sub><sup>+</sup> → CF<sub>2</sub> + Br<sub>2</sub><sup>+</sup> has been observed and identified in the case of 400 nm laser field, in which the two C-Br bonds break asynchronously.
