PREPARATION OF IONS IN SELECTED ROTATIONAL STATES BY DELAYED PULSED-FIELD IONIZATION
A novel method of preparing ions in selected rovibronic states is presented. It is based on pulsed field ionization of long-lived high-n Rydberg states lying just below the different rovibronic energy levels of the ion. The potential of the method is illustrated with the example of hydrogen: A clean...
