Phase information revealed by interferences in the ionization of rotational wave packets
Résumé
Time-resolved photoelectron spectra are proposed for the measurement of classical information recorded in the quantum phases of a molecular rotational wave packet. Taking Li2 as a prototypical system, we show that an interference arises from the electron-nuclei entanglement induced by the molecular anisotropy. This phenomenon is used to transfer the information that was stored initially in the nuclear rotational degree of freedom into the electronic degree of freedom.
