Calculation of the Laser Induced Stark Shifts in Diatomic Molecules.

Abstract

Standard perturbation results are applied to the case of laser induced dynamic Stark shifts of vibration-rotation terms of diatomic molecules. For fields at frequencies near an allowed vibration-rotation transition there are just four terms coupled by allowed transitions which cause significant shifts. After discussion of the method of calculating specific matrix elements from rotationless Einstein A coefficients, examples are given of Stark shift predictions for terms of HF, DF, and CO involved in strong laser lines of these molecules.
