Probing chirality fluctuations in molecules by nonlinear optical spectroscopy.
Symmetry breaking caused by geometric fluctuations can enable processes that are otherwise forbidden. An example is a perylene bisimide dyad whose dipole moments are perpendicular to each other. Förster-type energy transfer is thus forbidden at the equilibrium geometry since the dipolar coupling vanishes. Yet, fluctuations of the geometric arrangement have been shown to induce finite energy tra...
متن کاملOptical Absorption Spectra of Bipolarons
The absorption of large bipolarons is investigated using the path-integral method. The response of a bipolaron to an external electromagnetic field is derived in the framework of the memory function approach. The bipolaron optical absorption spectrum consists of a series of relatively narrow peaks. The peculiarities of the bipolaron optical absorption as a function of the frequency of the elect...
متن کاملProbing anomalous relaxation by coherent multidimensional optical spectroscopy.
We propose to study the origin of algebraic decay of two-point correlation functions observed in glasses, proteins, and quantum dots by their nonlinear response to sequences of ultrafast laser pulses. Power-law spectral singularities and temporal relaxation in two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy signals are predicted for a continuous time random walk model of stochastic spectral jumps in a...
متن کاملChirality-selective excitation of coherent phonons in carbon nanotubes by femtosecond optical pulses.
Using predesigned trains of femtosecond optical pulses, we have selectively excited coherent phonons of the radial breathing mode of specific-chirality single-walled carbon nanotubes within an ensemble sample. By analyzing the initial phase of the phonon oscillations, we prove that the tube diameter initially increases in response to ultrafast photoexcitation. Furthermore, from excitation profi...
متن کاملCircumstellar Molecular Line Absorption and Emission in the Optical Spectra of Post-agb Stars
We present a list of post-AGB stars showing molecular line absorption and emission in the optical spectrum. Two objects show CH, one in emission and one in absorption, and ten stars show C2 and CN in absorption. The Doppler velocities of the C2 lines and the rotational temperatures indicate that the line forming region is the AGB remnant. An analysis of the post-AGB stars of which CO millimeter...
