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.
