We study quantum systems with broken symmetry that can be modelled as cyclic three-level atoms with coexisting one- and two-photon transitions. They can be selectively optically excited to any state. As an example, we show that left- and…
A new scheme for enantiomer differentiation of chiral molecules using a pair of linearly polarized intense ultrashort laser pulses with skewed mutual polarization is presented. The technique relies on the fact that the off-diagonal…
We introduce a method for detection of chiral molecules using sequences of three pulses driving a closed-loop three-state quantum system. The left- and right-handed enantiomers have identical optical properties (transition frequencies and…
A novel optical method for distinguishing chiral molecules is proposed and validated within a quantum simulator employing a trapped-ion qudit. This approach correlates the sign disparity of the dipole moment of chiral molecules with…
We present a scheme to realize precise discrimination of chiral molecules in a cavity. Assisted by additional laser pulses, cavity fields can evolve to different coherence states with contrary-sign displacements according to the handedness…
We propose an accurate and convenient method to achieve 100\% discrimination of chiral molecules with Lewis-Riesenfeld invariant. By reversely designing the pulse scheme of handed resolution, we obtain the parameters of the three-level…
We propose a method to realize enantiodiscrimination of chiral molecules based on quantum correlation function in a driven cavity-molecule system, where the chiral molecule is coupled with a quantized cavity field and two classical light…
A highly-efficient method for optical detection and separation of left- and right-handed chiral molecules is presented. The method utilizes a closed-loop three-state system in which the population dynamics depends on the phases of the three…
Enantiomers are chiral molecules that exist in right-handed and left-handed conformations. Optical techniques of enantiomers detection are widely employed to discriminate between left- and right-handed molecules. However, identical spectra…
We study the excitation of asymmetric-top (including chiral) molecules by two-color femtosecond laser pulses. In the cases of non-chiral asymmetric-top molecules excited by an orthogonally polarized two-color pulse, we demonstrate,…
We theoretically introduce a scheme to perform Ramsey spectroscopy on a racemic mixture of chiral molecules, simultaneously extracting the transition frequencies of the left- and right-handed molecules, known as enantiomers. By taking the…
We propose to discriminate chiral molecules by combining one- and two-photon processes in a closed-loop configuration. The one-photon-coupling intrinsic {\pi}-phase difference between two enantiomers leads to their different superposition…
Enantioselective orientation of chiral molecules excited by a shaped picosecond laser pulse and a delayed femtosecond pulse is considered. Using quantum mechanical simulations, we demonstrate a strong field-free enantioselective orientation…
Entangled states of two coupled polar molecules controlled by laser pulses are studied theoretically. Schmidt decomposition is used to measure the degree of entanglement. By varying the pulse shape of the applied laser, transition from…
Chirality and chiral molecules are key elements in modern chemical and biochemical industries. Individual addressing, and the eventual separation of chiral enantiomers has been and still is an important elusive task in molecular physics and…
We present a comprehensive study of enantioselective orientation of chiral molecules excited by a pair of delayed cross-polarized femtosecond laser pulses. We show that by optimizing the pulses' parameters, a significant (~ 10%) degree of…
Chirality is ubiquitous in nature and of fundamental importance in science. The present work focuses on understanding the conditions required to modify the chirality during ultrafast electronic motion by bringing enantiomers…
We present a new technique for detecting chirality in the gas phase: Chiral molecules are spatially aligned in three-dimensions by a moderately strong elliptically-polarized laser field. The momentum distributions of the charged fragments,…
Orientation states of two coupled polar molecules controlled by laser pulses are studied theoretically. By varying the period of a series of periodically applied laser pulse, transition from regular to chaotic behavior may occur. Schmidt…
We present two methods for efficient detection of chiral molecules based on sequences of single pulses and Raman pulse pairs. The chiral molecules are modelled by a closed-loop three-state system with different signs in one of the couplings…
