Optical properties of molecular system coupled to the solvent

Abstract:

Analytic approximations for the absorption coefficient and refraction index have been obtained for a two-level molecular system in the presence of a four-wave mixing signal. Stochastic collisions among solutesolvent molecules produce a broadening of the upper level of energy. In this work, we have used four generalized Lorentzian approximants of the Voigt function as probability distribution, calculated by the two-point quasi-rational approximant method previously denoted as asymptotical Padé technique, for the evaluation of the average values of the Fourier components associated to the induced coherences. The innovation of this type of distributions allows us, by taking appropriate limits, to find similar profiles of optical properties as those using Gaussian and Lorentzian distribution functions. © 2009 World Scientific Publishing Company.
