The photoelectron momentum distributions display many ring-like patterns for the three-photon ionization, which vary dramatically with the change of the laser wavelength. We show that the wavelength-dependent photoelectron energy spectrum can be used to effectively identify the resonant and nonresonant ionization pathways. We also find an abnormal ellipticity dependence of the electron yield for the(2+1) resonance-enhanced ionization via the 4d intermediate state, which is relevant to the two-photon excitation probability from the ground state to the 4d state.展开更多
