Fluorescence detection of femtosecond accumulated photon echo

Kiyoshi Uchikawa, H. Ohsawa, S. Saikan

Generally, the photon echo measurement in opaque and scattering materials is difficult since the scattered pump beam overloads the detector. In this sense, a different modulation technique which does not induce the intensity modulation of the pump beam, is desirable for the scattering materials. We previously reported [1] that phase modulation method is also applicable to the measurement of accumulated photon echo. This technique has been much improved, and we have succeeded the fluorescence detection of the femtosecond accumulated photon echo.

Femtosecond Interferometric Waveform Measurement of Photon Echoes Using a Collinear Geometry

Takao Fuji, Jordan Carsten, Takuya Yoda +3 more

A new method for waveform measurement of photon echoes using a modified Michelson interferometer has been developed. The experimental setup uses collinear geometry, and photon echo signals are detected using a double-phase modulation technique. The amplitude and phase of photon echoes and those of excitation pulses are simultaneously measured by this technique. The method has been applied to a photon echo experiment on a dye solution. The results are explained using a stochastic modulation model with an accumulation effect of population grating.

Highly sensitive detection of accumulated photon echoes was achieved by means of a high-frequency heterodyned method using a mode-locked CW dye laser. Experimental results on the modulation frequency dependence of the echo signal strength and also the excitation wavelength dependence of the echo decay curves in Nd:silicate glass are presented.
