Giant enhancement of photodissociation of polar diatomic molecules in electric fields

Abstract

We explore the photodissociation of polar diatomic molecules in static electric fields in the rotationally cold regime using the example of the LiCs molecule. A giant enhancement of the differential cross section is found for laboratory electric field strengths, and analyzed with varying rovibrational bound states, continuum energies as well as field strengths.
