Non-linear dichroism in atomic ionization — •Jiri Hofbrucker1,2, Andrey V. Volotka1, and Stephan Fritzsche1,2 — 1Helmholtz Institute, Jena, Germany — 2Friedrich-Schiller University Jena
Dichroic behavior is usually associated with an interaction of polarized atomic or chiral molecular target and circularly polarized light. However, in a non-linear interaction regime, elliptically polarized light ionizing symmetric target also produces a dichroic photoelectron angular distributions. The fundamental origin of this asymmetry explains why is the elliptical dichroism strictly a feature of multi-photon processes only, and why it is never observed in the single photon ionization process. Being energy and system specific, this phenomena give us an opportunity to study many-electron effects as well as fundamentals of non-linear light-matter interaction. Observation of this phenomena in two-photon ionization of an inner-shell shell electron of a rare gas atom is proposed.
