抄録

<jats:p>Using the all-optical molecular orientation technique with intense nonresonant two-color laser pulses, stronger molecular orientation |⟨cos θ2D⟩| ∼ 0.34 is achieved by employing the following two strategies: (1) carbonyl sulfide molecules lying in the lower rotational states are selected using a home-built molecular deflector and (2) the rising parts of the two wavelengths of the pump pulse are adjusted by introducing a Michelson-type delay line in the optical path. The achieved degree of molecular orientation is higher than that observed in the proof-of-principle experiment [Oda et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 213901 (2010)] by about an order of magnitude and the highest ever characterized directly by Coulomb explosion imaging with appropriate probe polarization.</jats:p>
