In view of the rapid growth in both experimental and theoretical studies of multiphoton processes and multiphoton spectroscopy of atoms, ions and molecules in chemistry, physics, biology, materials science, etc., it is desirable to publish an advanced series of books containing review papers that can be read not only by active researchers in these areas, but also by those who are not experts in the field but intend to enter it. The present series attempts to serve this purpose. Each review article is written in a self-contained manner by experts in the area, so that the reader can grasp the...

In recent years, there has been rapid growth in the research field of real-time observation of nuclear and electronic dynamics in molecules. Its time range extends from femtoseconds to attoseconds. This has been made possible by the development of both laser technology and time-dependent theoretical treatments. Indeed, this research field is arguably the most active one in molecular science, second only to femtosecond chemistry. The outcome of the research is expected to make an important contribution to physics, materials science and biology as well as chemistry. In this monograph, the...

This volume presents recent progress and perspectives in multi-photon processes and spectroscopy of atoms, ions, and molecules. The subjects in the series cover the experimental and theoretical investigations in interdisciplinary research fields in natural science including chemistry, physics, bioscience and material science.

Presenting advances in this field, this book covers topics including: theories of stationary and time-dependent wave operators and their applications in photochemistry; resonant two-photon ionization studies of C6H6-Xn clusters; and master equations in quantum optics.

This text discusses recent research in multiphoton processes and spectroscopy. Topics examined by this volume include vibration spectroscopy of surfaces using the nonlinear optical process and the quantum theory of laser-driven spontaneous emission and superradiance.
