Coherent Transient Optical Kerr Effect in Liquids: Experimental Consideration

Tzer-Hsiang HuangI, Chia-Chen Hsul, Tai-Huei Weir +3 more

The noise tenaciously appearing in the optically heterodyne detected (OHD) transient optical Kerr effect (OKE) o f simple molecular liquids is investigated. We show that, for liquid samples of interest to us, coherent coupling does exist and appears as noise when not properly resolved. The strength of coherent coupling relative to the OKE depends critically on the sample position, with respect to the beam waist of the probe laser, as well as the angle subtended by the pump and probe beams. When the optics alignment is optimized for the OKE against coherent coupling the OHD-OKE signal is found to increase linearly with the local oscillator strength; the coherent coupling signal also appears to increase though the trend is not clear-cut.

Coherent control of the molecular dynamics in a liquid by femtosecond four-pulse excitation

Victor G. Nikiforov, Vladimir S. Lobkov, В. В. Самарцев +1 more

© 2015 Astro Ltd. The laser non-resonant excitation based on the (2 ×2) sequence of the two pairs of the pump pulses with orthogonal linear polarizations is proposed and theoretically considered for the control of the vibrational responses without or with the low amplitude of the rotational responses in a liquid. As an example, we model the optical molecular responses resulting in the optical Kerr effect transients in ortho-dichlorobenzene. Theoretical analysis shows the high efficiency of the (2 ×2) excitation scenarios for the various manipulations of the molecular responses.
