An optical micro-linear accelerator for molecules and atoms

Abstract

Acceleration of molecules within a time varying electric field produced by an optical traveling wave has been proposed as a means to accelerate neutral particles to high velocity.1 This technique is attractive because extremely large stark forces can be produced by the high electric field gradients that can be created within an optical traveling wave.
