要旨

The enhancement of the resonance lifetime that occurs upon interference of two overlapping resonances excited coherently by two pulses with delayed time has been investigated as a function of the pulse temporal width and the delay time between the pulses. A general law predicting quantitatively the optimal delay time that maximizes the lifetime enhancement of the two resonances has been established in terms of the pulse width and of the lifetimes of both resonances when they are excited isolatedly. The specific form of the law and all the results found can be closely related to the characteristic features of the mechanism of interference between the overlapping resonances, providing a detailed understanding on how the mechanism operates. The proposed law is envisioned as a useful tool to design experimental strategies to control the resonance lifetime.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
