Collectively enhanced resonant photoionization in a multi-atom ensemble

Abstract

Photoionization of an atom via interatomic correlations to N neighboring atoms may be strongly enhanced due to constructive interference of quantum pathways. The ionization proceeds via resonant photoexcitation of a neighbor atom and subsequent interatomic Coulombic decay. The enhancement can scale with N2, leading to "super-enhanced photoionization".
