The femtosecond laser at 800 nm with an intensity of 8.0 × 1013 W/cm2 was used. The ob- served relative yield of the primary fragment ion CH3+ increases with increasing pulse width and tends to saturate when the pulse width is longer than 120 fs. The field-assisted dissociation (FAD) model and quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculation were ap- plied to predicting the dissociation probability of CH4+. The calculated probability is corrected with the mo- lecular orientation effect and the spatial distribution of laser intensity. The modified results show that the dissociation requires at least 23 fs and saturates with long pulse widths (≥100 fs). The result is ap- proximately consistent with the experimental observa- tion.展开更多
