Deflection of Molecules by a Homogeneous Electric Field: A New Effect

Chemical Physics 2007-05-23 v2 General Physics

Abstract

In this work, we put forward a theoretical explanation of a peculiar effect found very recently (A. Gonzalez Urena et al., Chem. Phys. Lett. 341 (2001) 495). They have observed the deflection of a beam of molecules posessing a permanent electric dipole moment by a homogeneous electric field when a resonant oscillating field is superposed transverse to the static one.
