Vibrationally resolved sum-frequency generation with broad-bandwidth infrared pulses.

چکیده
We present a novel procedure for vibrationally resolved sum-frequency generation (SFG) in which a broad-bandwidth IR pulse is mixed with a narrow-bandwidth visible pulse. The resultant SFG spectrum is dispersed with a spectrograph and detected in parallel with a scientific-grade CCD detector, permitting rapid and high signal-to-noise ratio data acquisition over a 400-cm(-1) spectral region without scanning the IR frequency. Application to the study of a self-assembled monolayer of octadecanethiol is discussed.

متن کاملThe air-liquid interface of benzene, toluene, m-xylene, and mesitylene: a sum frequency, Raman, and infrared spectroscopic study.
The air-liquid interface and the liquid-phase of benzene, toluene, 1,3-dimethylbenzene, and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene are studied using broad bandwidth sum frequency generation spectroscopy, Raman and infrared spectroscopy. A vibrationally resonant sum frequency response is observed from these surfaces in spite of the small hyperpolarizabilities, in particular, the zero and near-zero hyperpolariza...
متن کاملBroadband sum frequency generation with two regenerative amplifiers: temporal overlap of femtosecond and picosecond light pulses.
Sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy is a valuable tool for studying interfaces such that the boundary between two adjoining phases can be probed with minimal interference from the adjacent bulk material. More recently, broad-bandwidth sum frequency generation (BBSFG) techniques are being explored. This technique using IR broad-bandwidth fs pulses overlapped with narrow-bandwidth ps puls...
متن کاملDiffuse reflection broad bandwidth sum frequency generation from particle surfaces.
We report the first vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG) spectroscopic study from particle surfaces of powdered solids using a modified SFG approach, diffuse reflection broad bandwidth sum frequency generation (DR-BBSFG). The DR-BBSFG spectrum of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, C(12)H(25)SO(4)Na) powdered solids was obtained. Five peaks were resolved by calculated fits. Possible origins of ...
متن کاملRapid vibrational imaging with sum frequency generation microscopy.
We demonstrate rapid vibrational imaging based on sum frequency generation (SFG) microscopy with a collinear excitation geometry. Using the tunable picosecond pulses from a high-repetition-rate optical parametric oscillator, vibrationally selective imaging of collagen fibers is achieved with submicrometer lateral resolution. We furthermore show simultaneous SFG and second harmonic generation im...
