Abstract

Interference stabilization of atoms is discussed. Raman-type transitions to Rydberg states with higher values of the electron orbital momentum l are taken into account in numerical calculations. These transitions are shown to change qualitatively theoretical predictions concerning the dependence of the time of ionization t_i on the light field-strength amplitude (epsilon) ₀: the time of ionization is shown to be a falling function of (epsilon) ₀ in the weak-field region and, then, in a rather large interval of (epsilon) ₀, to be approximately constant. The results derived are shown to be in a rather good agreement with the existing experiments.
