Fully Coherent Triple Sum Frequency Spectroscopy of a Benzene Fermi Resonance
journal contribution
posted on 2013-07-11, 00:00 authored by Erin S. Boyle, Andrei V. Pakoulev, John C. WrightIn this paper we present a new multiresonant
coherent multidimensional
spectroscopy (CMDS) technique employing a pathway that is both fully
coherent and necessarily unique. This technique is based on a Triple
Sum Frequency (TSF) coherence pathway with three excitation pulses
having frequencies ω1, ω2, and ω3 and the phase matching condition k⃗1 + k⃗2 + k⃗3. Two-dimensional spectra are created by independently
tuning the ω1 and ω2 pulses across
vibrational resonances while monitoring the intensity of a visible
output beam created by a Raman transition induced by the ω3 pulse. Two-dimensional plots of the coherent dynamics are
created by independently scanning the τ21 and τ31 delay times between the different frequency excitation pulses
over all time orderings. TSF CMDS separates fundamental and overtone/combination
band states uniquely onto the ω1 and ω2 axes when τ21 ≠ 0. TSF is valuable
in its ability to probe states of complementary parity to those seen
in Doubly Vibrationally Enhanced Four-Wave Mixing (DOVE-FWM), the
other fully coherent mixed electronic/vibrational CMDS method. This
capability is demonstrated through the use of neat benzene as a model
system, where the center of inversion imposes strict parity selection
rules.
