Ultrafast time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy
S. H. Lin, Benjamin Fain, C. Y. Yeh
We present a theory of time-resolved emission spectroscopy in the femtosecond region. It is shown that a femtosecond time-resolved emission spectrum consists of the contributions from the population and coherence of the system. Theoretical expressions for describing femtosecond time-resolved emission molecular spectra based on the use of the adiabatic approximation are derived. Detailed numerical calculations have been carried out to show the effect of the time evolution of the population and coherence on the time-resolved emission spectra.
