Study and characterization of new resonances in the frequency space in a two-level system with non-zero permanent dipole moments

José Luis Paz, M.C. Bessega, Alfredo E. Cárdenas +1 more

Properties of the resonance peaks associated with the non-degenerate four-wave mixing signal in a two-level molecular system with non-zero permanent dipole moments are studied in the space defined by the pump ( omega 1 ) and probe ( omega 2 ) frequencies. An analytical expression for the Fourier components of the nonlinear homogeneous macroscopic polarization are obtained, where the terms responsible for the oscillation (at frequency omega 3 =2 omega 1 - omega 2 ) of the populations and coherences are also identified. Topological properties of the resulting nonlinear spectra are studied in frequency space using three-dimensional curves and contour plots. We have additionally identified the dominant contributions of the coherence and/or population that determine the intensity and the spectral linewidth. The critical quantities for the present analysis are the transition and permanent dipole moments when the rotating-wave approximation (RWA) is not considered.

Two-photon resonance four-wave mixing spectroscopy in polar media

Georgi Borislavov Hadjichristov, M. Stamova, P. P. Kircheva

The effect of the permanent electric-dipole moments of polar media on the two-photon resonance four-wave mixing (TPR FWM) as described by chi (3) ( omega 4 = omega 1 - omega 2 + omega 3 ) is studied. The spectra corresponding to different processes of TPR FWM are modelled for a three-level system. It is demonstrated that the difference- and sum-frequency TPR FWM spectroscopy is sensitive to the difference between permanent dipole moments of the two levels coupled by the TPR.

Effects of permanent dipole moments in transient four-wave mixing experiments

J. P. Lavoine

A two-pulse degenerate four-wave mixing experiment is analyzed in the case where the medium under investigation can be modeled by two-level systems having unequal permanent dipole moments. By modeling the light pulses by double exponentials [exp(-Gamma/t/)], we give an analytical expression of the third-order nonlinear polarization of the medium. We apply this result to simulate the measured signal in such experiment. We show that in the case of a two-photon transition, a signal can be detected if the pump pulse interacts with the medium before the probe pulse contrary to what is observed for excitations in the resonance region. An attempt to explain this behavior is made and the detected signal is analyzed in terms of pure coherent processes. This effect appears as a signature of the presence of permanent dipole moments. To test this property on a more realistic system, we then have considered a one-dimensional frequency-selected infrared degenerate four-wave mixing experiment on a molecular anharmonic vibrational mode modeled by a Morse potential and coupled to a dissipative bath of harmonic oscillators. We show that the two-photon transitions allowed by the presence of permanent dipole moments enable to analyze the multilevel system dynamics as if they were the one of a two-level system. Our results can also be extended to the case of inhomogeneous broadening and are of interest to study the infrared photon-echo response of anharmonic vibrational modes.
