چکیده

Optically heterodyne-detected femtosecond Raman-induced Kerr-effect spectroscopy (OHD-FRIKES) was observed in neat cyclohexane. In this Letter, an examination of the effect of the Raman pump ellipticity on the multiplex OHD-FRIKES spectra is discussed. The Raman pump ellipticity scanned OHD-FRIKES results reproduce anomalous observables from previous OHD-FRIKES experiments and suggest new methods of tracking transient vibrational mode polarization in complex systems.

Ultrafast Charge Transfer in Nickel Phthalocyanine Probed by Femtosecond Raman-Induced Kerr Effect Spectroscopy

The recently developed technique of femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy, and its variant, femtosecond Raman-induced Kerr effect spectroscopy (FRIKES), offer access to ultrafast excited-state dynamics via structurally specific vibrational spectra. We have used FRIKES to study the photoexcitation dynamics of nickel(II) phthalocyanine with eight butoxy substituents, NiPc(OBu)8. NiPc(OBu)8 is...

Raman-induced Kerr-effect dual-comb spectroscopy.

We report on the first (to our knowledge) demonstration of nonlinear dual-frequency-comb spectroscopy. In multi-heterodyne femtosecond Raman-induced Kerr-effect spectroscopy, the Raman gain resulting from the coherent excitation of molecular vibrations by a spectrally narrow pump is imprinted onto the femtosecond laser frequency comb probe spectrum. The birefringence signal induced by the nonli...

Solvent effects on the vibrational frequency of I 2 2 in size - selected I 2 2 „ Ar ... n and I 2 2 „ CO 2 ... n clusters

The vibrational frequency of the I2 2 chromophore in size-selected I2 ~Ar!n and I2 ~CO2!n clusters has been measured to wave-number accuracy. The frequencies are determined by creating a coherent superposition of vibrational levels with a femtosecond laser pulse via a resonance impulsive stimulated Raman scattering process. The resulting wave-packet oscillations are detected with femtosecond ph...

Polarization-dependent spectral broadening of femtosecond pulses in silicon waveguides

We investigate the polarization dependence of the spectral broadening of femtosecond pulses inside silicon waveguides by using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations. Our FDTDmodel includes the anisotropic dependency of predominant nonlinear effects in silicon: Kerr effect, two-photon absorption, and Raman effect. In addition, free-carrier absorption and free-carrier dispersion effect...
