摘要：

The anharmonic vibrational ladder of nitric oxide (NO) is climbed by irradiating the molecule with chirped intense (sub)picosecond infrared (IR) pulses (I-max = 1.0 x 10(10) W/cm(2)). The chirp of the broadband IR (h nu = 1850 cm(-1), Delta h nu = 50 cm(-1)) pulse from a free-electron laser is controlled by a pulse shaper. Transfer up to the excited vibrational state X(2)Pi(1/2)(upsilon = 3) of NO shows a strong enhancement when the frequency chirp of the IR pulses follows the consecutive anharmonic vibrational transitions.
