Laser-Induced Neutralization and Negative-Ion Formation in Surface Scattering.

Abstract

In neutralization and negative-ion formation from positive ions scattering from a solid surface, a laser can be used to control the nature of resonant, near-resonant, and even non-resonant transfer of electrons from the conduction band. These spectral characteristics can be achieved by variation of only the laser frequency and intensity. (Author)
