Simplified setup for high-resolution spectroscopy that uses ultrashort pulses.
Using a broadband femtosecond laser and a simple optical setup, we demonstrate narrow-bandwidth-tunable excitation of vibrational modes in CCl4 and CHBr3 liquids. The resolution obtained is 80 times higher than the laser bandwidth. A pair of time-shifted, linearly chirped pulses is created by use of a high-order dispersion-compensated prism-interferometer setup. We use this pulse pair to select...
متن کاملFemtosecond multiple - pulse impulsive stimulated Raman scattering spectroscopy
Optical control of elementary molecular motion through impulsive stimulated Raman scattering is enhanced by means of timed sequences of femtosecond pulses that are produced by pulse-shaping techniques. In particular, terahertz-rate trains of femtosecond pulses are used for repetitive impulsive excitation of individual phonon modes in an a-perylene molecular crystal. When the pulse repetition ra...
متن کاملShaped pulse electric-field construction and interferometric characterization: The SPECIFIC method
A method is reported for creating, generating, and measuring parametrically shaped pulses for time-bandwidth product >>5, which consists of a parametric pulse-shaping algorithm, a spatial light modulation system and a single shot interferometric characterization scheme (SEA TADPOLE) . The utilization of these tools marks the inception of a new method called SPECIFIC, shaped-pulse electric-field...
متن کاملAbsolute measurement of the ultrafast nonlinear electronic and rovibrational response in H2 and D2
The high-field nonlinear polarizability of diatomic molecules is a topic of practical and fundamental importance. From optical frequency conversion [1,2] to simulations and experiments in high-intensity propagation [3–9], understanding the atomic and molecular behavior under high laser fields is crucial for applications. Unlike in monatomic gases, the nonlinear molecular response cannot be char...
متن کاملVibrational symmetry breaking of supported nanospheres
The elastic properties of nanoscale particles have been a matter of intense investigations in the recent past. On the one hand, noble metal nanoparticles can serve as model systems for accessing electron-phonon interactions. 1-3 On the other hand, nanoscale dynamics and structure are accessible via macroscopic optical tools to investigate size-dependent phenomena such as vibrations,4,5 vibratio...
