Abstract
It is well known that the electrostatic hexapole lens focuses oriented symmetric-top molecules.1 Recently, It was shown that this technique can produce symmetric-top molecules in essentially pure rotational states.2 The degree of molecular orientation for CH3I is determined by measuring the asymmetry in the angular distribution of the photofragments resulting from photodissociation of the oriented molecules by linearly polarized light.3,4
