Measurement of the ionization cross section of Rydberg state of benzene molecules

摘要

The frequency-tunable light,which was produced by using YAG laser to pump the dye rhodamine 590/610,was used to measure the ions number in ionization of the benzene molecules Rydberg state 5Rg|10 as a function of the light intensity.Fitting the measured data by using the deduced equation from the method of spatial integration,the ionization cross section of single photon of molecule benzene 5Rg|10 was obtained to be 2.1×10-19cm2 approximately.
