The low temperature and weak interaction with dopants makes He-nanodroplet isolation a widely used technique for high resolution spectroscopy. We combine two-colour fs-pump-probe spectroscopy and velocity-map-imaging - of both ions and electrons - to investigate vibrational wave-packet dynamics and photodissociation of alkali halides. By comparing molecules in the gas phase to those embedded in He-nanodroplets, we study the effect of the surrounding He on the photodynamics.
When illuminated by intense NIR laser pulses, the doped He nanodroplets can turn into a highly reactive nanoplasma environment, in which both the He and the rare gas dopants are multiply ionized to high charge states. Surprisingly, the formation of a nanoplasma is strongly suppressed when doping the droplets with surface-bound alkali and earth-alkali metals. This points at pronounced geometrical effects in the dopant-induced ignition process.
