Last Name: POPESCU

First Name: DENISA-GEORGETA

Born: March 18, 1932, Braila, Romania, daughter of Elisa (b. Ionescu) and Ion Chiru

Married: August 10, 1963, to Ioan-Iovitz Popescu

Education:

• Bucharest University, the 5 years Faculty of Mathematics and Physics (1951).
• Institut für Experimentalphysik der Christian Albrecht Universität Kiel, Germany, postgraduate studies in Atomic and Plasma Spectroscopy with Prof. Walter Lochte-Holtgreven and Prof. Johannes Richter (February 1968-March 1969).
• Bucharest Institute of Physics of the Romanian Academy, Ph.D. (December 1970),  thesis Contributions to the Investigation of the Cesium Plasma in Thermionic Converters under the supervision of Acad. Prof. Eugen Badareu
• University of Texas at Dallas, Physics Faculty, research fellowship in Atomic and Molecular Multiphoton Spectroscopy, with Prof. Carl B. Collins, in the framework of the US - Romanian Project in Atomic and Plasma Physics (November 1972 - March 1973, and May 1975 - September 1975).

Career:

Bucharest Institute of Physics of the Romanian Academy and Institute of Physics and Technology of Radiation Devices, researcher (1959-1971), senior researcher and chief of the Laboratory of Laser Spectroscopy (1971-1984). Medical retirement (1984).

Main Achievements:

• 46 scientific publications on topics in gas discharges, plasma and laser spectroscopy, among which 16 papers in foreign international journals and cited in about 560 other publications.
• Original contributions in the physics of thermionic plasmas (1967) and absorption spectroscopy of excited atoms (1969).
• Introduced the optogalvanic effect as a new principle for laser spectroscopy by thermionic detection (1973), and radio-frequency detection (1980).
• First experimental evidence of multiphoton spectra of free atoms and molecules with tunable lasers (1973, 1974).
• Discovery of hybrid resonances and state-selective laser photolysis of molecules (1974). This two-photon process involving hybrid molecular-atomic resonances appears to be the most efficient for the production of highly excited Rydberg atoms.
• Introduction of photolytic spectroscopy (1980) capable to investigate in detail the predissociation of neutral molecules, the form of the repulsive potential curves and the atomic dissociation states.
• First demonstrations of the real possibilities of multiphoton spectroscopy (1973-1981) which initiated the growth of the field of laser spectroscopy by Excited-State Spectroscopy, Rydberg Spectroscopy, Two-Photon Doppler-Free Spectroscopy, Multiphoton Ionization Spectroscopy and Photolytic Spectroscopy.

Prizes and Honors:

• Third Olimpic Romanian Prize for Mathematics (1951)

• Physics Prize “C. Miculescu” of the Romanian Academy (1976) for her researches in atomic and molecular multiphoton spectroscopy

• Four times nominated for the Nobel Prize in Physics (in 1981, 1995, 1996, and 1997) for her experimental discovery of atomic multiphoton spectra. The seminal paper in which the first atomic two-photon absorption spectrum (Doppler-broadened) was reported is (see position 06 on the paper list below): Multiphoton Excitation and Ionization of Atomic Cesium with a Tunable Dye Laser, by Denisa Popescu, C.B.Collins, B.W.Johnson, and I.-Iovitz Popescu, Physical Review A, vol. 9, 1182-1187 (received 16 April 1973, published March 1974). As often happens, this original discovery was eclipsed in a matter of months by the report on Doppler-free two-photon absorption spectra, a dramatic improvement in resolution, using two counter-propagating laser beams, reported in letter-type journals. However, if the receipt dates of the publications are compared, it can be seen that the former discovery preceded the widely respected improvement by almost a year, as it results from the following chronology of the competing articles:
(i) D. Pritchard, J. Apt, and T. W. Ducas, Fine structure of Na 4d 2D using high-resolution two-photon spectroscopy, Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 32, 641-642 (received 23 January 1974, published 25 March 1974);
(ii) F.Biraben, B.Cagnac, and G.Grynberg, Experimental evidence of two-photon transition without Doppler broadening, Phys. Rev. Lett., vol.32, 643-645 (received 28 January 1974, published 25 March 1974);

(iv) T.W.Hänsch, K.C.Harvey, G.Meisel, and A. L. Schawlow (1981 Nobel Laureate for laser spectroscopy), Two-photon spectroscopy of Na 3S-4D without Doppler broadening using a cw dye laser, Opt. Commun., vol.11, 50-53 (received 26 February 1974, published May 1974);

T. W. Hänsch, K. C. Harvey, G. Meisel, A. L. Schawlow (1981 Nobel Prize in Physics for laser spectroscopy), Two-photon spectroscopy of Na 3S-4D without Doppler broadening using a cw dye laser, Opt.Commun., vol. 11, 50 (1974). Page 50: "Two-photon transitions have been investigated theoretically as early as 1929 [cit. papers of Maria Goeppert-Meyer (1929, 1931)]. Experimental observations in the visible have become possible, however, only since the advent of strong laser sources [cit.our paper [05], C. B. Collins et al., Phys. Rev. A, vol. 8, 2197 (1973)]. …We believe that our experiment is the first demonstration of the extremely high resolution obtainable by this phenomenon [Foot Note: Very recently we learned that Levenson and Bloembergen at Harvard have also observed two-photon transitions without Doppler broadening. They observed the Na 3S-5S transition, using a nitrogen-laser-pumped pulsed dye laser]... Our experiment opens the way to numerous interesting spectroscopic studies of atoms and molecules. The new technique complements the methods of laser saturation spectroscopy and is particularly attractive because it allows us to study forbidden lines and to reach high lying states at twice the laser photon energy. It vastly extends the number of atoms and molecules which can be studied with high resolution, using CW dye lasers of limited tuning range."

NOTE: In the same year (1974) we presented a joint report with Professor Schawlow [06P]: Fine and hyperfine structure measurements of two photon transitions in atomic cesium with a tunable dye laser, S. M. Curry, C. B. Collins, T. W. Hänsch, S. A. Lee, Denisa Popescu, I.-I. Popescu and A. L. Schawlow (1981 Nobel Prize in Physics for laser spectroscopy), Sixth Annual Meeting of the Division of Electron and Atomic Physics, Chicago, Illinois, 1974, Bull. Am. Phys. Soc., vol. 19, 1198 (1974), having the following abstract: "Observations have been made of the fine and hyperfine structure of two photon transitions in atomic cesium excited by a nitrogen laser pumped narrow-band dye laser [cit. T. W. Hänsch, Appl.Optics, vol.11, 895 (1972)] and detected by a space charge limited cesium vapor photodiode [cit. our paper [04], Denisa Popescu et al., Phys.Rev. A, vol.8, 1666 (1973)]. Transitions have been observed from the 6S ground state to selected higher lying nS Rydberg levels up to n=14 and nD levels to n=19. Line strength ratios of the fine and hyperfine structure components have been measured and compared with theoretical predictions."

N. Bloembergen (1981 Nobel Prize in Physics for laser spectroscopy), M. D. Levenson, Doppler-Free Two-Photon Absorption Spectroscopy, Chap.8, page 315 in High-Resolution Laser Spectroscopy, ed. K. Shimoda, Topics in Applied Physics, vol. 13, Springer, Berlin (1976). Page 347: "Detection Techniques. ...While the technology of quantum detection is quite advanced, situations do occur when it cannot be used. One can imagine cases where the dominant decay route for an excited state does not involve the radiation of any detectable quantum. In these situations, detection techniques developed for other purposes can be applied to Doppler-free multi-quantum spectroscopy. One well-developed technique of this sort relies upon photoionization of an excited species. Photoionization is quite likely to occur in multi-quantum absorption experiments in any case. The ion produced can be detected with high efficiency in space charge ionization diode, or by a secondary emission electron multiplier [cit our paper [04], Denisa Popescu et al., Phys. Rev. A, vol. 8, 1666 (1973); also Marr and Wherrett (1972), Cagnac et al. (1973), Hotop et al. (1973)]. The required electrodes must be designed into the optical absorption cell, but the outputs of these detection devices have many of the same characteristics as quantum detectors."

M. Prokhorov (1964 Nobel Prize in Physics for Quantum Electronics), Preface, Proc. Int. Conf. on Multiphoton Processes, Rochester, USA, June 1977, editors G. Mainfray, J. Eberly, and P. Lambropoulos, Wiley Interscience, New York (1978). Page 5 of the Preface: "In the case of resonance, of greatest importance are perturbations of the resonance state associated with induced bound-bound and bound-free transitions. As for ionization, resonance is interesting because of a sudden increase in the cross-section. The upsurge of interest devoted to this phenomenon is attributed however, to its applicability in diagnostics of the atomic spectrum. One of the possibilities here is to use rather weak fields where the perturbation of the resonance state is less than its natural width. Under such conditions, by varying the light frequency and by observing the resonant increase of ion emission, one can perform detailed spectroscopic studies of highly-excited atomic states. The possibilities opened up by this method - the so called resonance ionization spectroscopy - are evident from a series of works by Collins, Popescu and their collaborators [cit. our paper [06], Denisa Popescu et al., Phys. Rev. A, vol. 9, 1182 (1974)]."

D. R. Lyons, A. L. Schawlow (1981 Nobel Prize in Physics for laser spectroscopy), G. Y. Yan, Doppler-free radiofrequency optogalvanic spectroscopy, Opt. Commun., vol. 38, 35 (1981). Page 35: "Regenerative detectors have long been employed to detect small impedance changes, particularly for measuring phenomena such as nuclear magnetic and nuclear quadrupole resonances (Schawlow 1954). Any oscillator automatically adjusts its level of oscillation so that losses are just balanced by the regenerative amplification. If the losses are increased slightly, the oscillator amplitude is correspondingly decreased, and this produces an observable change in the oscillator anode current. ...Regenerative detection has been reported for Doppler-broadened lines by Stanciulescu et al. [cit.our paper [11], C. Stanciulescu et al., Appl. Phys. Lett., vol. 37, 888 (1980)]. Radio-frequency oscillators have the advantage that they can maintain discharges at low pressures, minimizing pressure broadening. Electrodeless radiofrequency discharges are particularly suitable for spectroscopy of scarce or corrosive gases. In our experiment, we have used a Colpitts regenerative oscillator with a triode 6A4F (fig.1)."

NOTE: It follows the description of the circuit diagram of the oscillator used for excitation and optogalvanic detection, which is essentially the same Colpitts oscillator circuit used for the first time in optogalvanic laser spectroscopy in our previous (1980) papers [11 and 09R-11R].

Pages 1034-1036: "Two-photon hybrid resonances in K vapor. During the piecewise search for Doppler-free cw two-photon transitions in Na-K, five strong Doppler-broadened UV signals were observed at laser wavelengths corresponding to excited-state 4P-7S and 4P-5D transitions in atomic K. The strongest transition observed, corresponding to the 4 P-7 S transition in K, is presented in Fig. 3. The Doppler width of 1.5 GHz at 430 K (Dn =1.2 GHz; K vapor pressure is 5 mTorr) is comparable with that observed for one-photon transitions in atomic K, but it could be pressure broadened to 2.7 GHz by increasing the temperature to 570 K (Dn =1.4 GHz, p=300 mTorr). A Lamb dip was observed, indicating that the transition is saturated. The observed transitions along with the corresponding excited-state absorption frequencies in K are listed in Table 3. It it believed that these signals are due to hybrid resonances similar to those first reported by Collins et al. [cit. our paper [07], C. B. Collins et al., Phys. Rev. A, vol. 10, 813 (1974)], who detected multiphoton ionization of Cs through photolysis of Cs2 . …We believe that we are the first to observe these hybrid transitions in K vapor by using a narrow-band cw dye laser and optical detection techniques. Figure 4 (Excitation and fluorescence channels for hybrid resonances in K vapor) presents the steps involved in the two-step absorption process. One photon is absorbed by the dimer K2 , exciting it to a dissociating state 100-200 cm above the A- and B-state dissociation limits. This produces an excited 4P atom that subsequently absorbs a second photon to the 5D or 7S atomic state. The excited atom can relax to the 5P or 6P level, which then can decay to the ground 4S state, emitting UV light at 4044 and 3447 Å, respectively. ...IR laser emission in K vapor pumped with a pulsed dye laser at 6911 and 6939 Å has been reported by Wang et al. (1984) in which the excitation process is also by two-photon hybrid resonances. The first photon excites K2 dimers to highly excited vibrational levels in the A and B states that are below the dissociation limit. This is followed by collisional transfer of the excitation to the 4P levels of a K atom, which is subsequently excited to the 6S level by the second photon. Similar IR laser emission is to be expected for the hybrid resonances reported here."

Page 142: "In optogalvanic spectroscopy, the electrical impedance of a gas discharge is altered when it is illuminated by light from laser tuned to one of the wavelengths emitted or absorbed by the gas [cit. our paper [11], C. Stanciulescu et al., Appl. Phys. Lett., vol. 38, 888 (1980); also the papers with A. L. Schawlow’s co-authorship, Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 42, 1046 (1979), Opt. Lett., vol. 4, 230 (1979), and Opt. Commun., vol. 38, 35, (1981)]. This occurs because the optical excitation alters the population of excited atomic states, which are more easily ionized to provide current-carrying free electrons, the closer they are to the ionization limit [cit. again our paper [11], C. Stanciulescu et al., Appl. Phys. Lett., vol. 38, 888 (1980)]."
