DescriptionHydrogen molecular ion dressed in photons.png
English: Two pictures of a molecule interacting with laser field. At low intensity (a) it is convenient to plot molecular energy curves and indicate photon transitions with vertical arrows. At high intensity (b) it is more appropriate to "dress" the molecular curves in photons, i.e. add the energy of the photons to the molecular curves, and consider photon transitions at the curve crossings, which induces bond softening.

The molecular curves have been calculated and plotted by L J Frasinski using Matlab code.
