Study of the optical susceptibilities of a two-level molecular system in the four wave mixing spectroscopy - Local regime

Abstract:

It was studied the solvent influence over a two level system in the four wave mixing spectroscopy. The solvente effect was incorporated to the model in a stochastic form, through the broadening of the upper molecular level. Two intense waves of the same frequency, ω1, and another wave with minor intensity and ω2 frequency, were considered coupled to the nonlinear system, generating a new signal whose frequency is ω3, and where the wave-vectors follow the relation k →1, + k→1, = k →2 + k→3. Using the dipolar-electric and the rotating wave approximations, it was calculated the average of the coherence at the ω1, ω2 and ω3 frequencies. From that results, analytical expressions to the susceptibilities at the studied frequencies were obtained. Linear, coherent and coupled processes were identified.
