Abstract:
We propose a novel method to determine the complex amplitude of each eigenfunction comprising a vibrational wavepacket of H$_{2}^{+}$ /D$_{2}^{+}$ molecular ions evolving with a ∼10 fs time scale generated and probed with a pair of attosecond pulse train. We find that the two-dimensional spectrogram of the kinetic energy release (KER) of H$^{+}$/D$^{+}$ fragments plotted against the time delay of the probe pulse is equivalent to the spectrogram used in the frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) technique to retrieve the complex amplitude of an ultrashort optical pulse. By adapting the FROG algorithm to the delay-KER spectrogram of the vibrational wavepacket, we have reconstructed the complex amplitude.
