Autler–Townes splitting in photoelectron spectra of K₂ molecule

We investigate Autler-Townes splitting in the photoelectron spectra of K₂ molecule driven by pump-probe pulses via employing the time-dependent wave packet approach. It is found that the magnitude of Aulter-Townes splitting varies with the wavelength of the intense laser pulse. In particular, the phenomenon of Aulter-Townes splitting vanishes for the far-off resonance of the pump pulse. Also, the split peaks of Autler-Townes in the case of resonant pump pulse give us an approach to directly obtaining the transition dipole moment of a molecule.
