Sum-Frequency Signals in 2D-Terahertz-Terahertz-Raman Spectroscopy
Abstract
We demonstrate that halogenated methane (HM) two-dimensional (2D)-terahertz-terahertz-Raman (2D-TTR) spectra are determined by the complicated structure of the instrument response function (IRF) along ω₁ and by the molecular coherences along ω₂. Experimental improvements have helped increase the resolution and dynamic range of the measurements, including accurate THz pulse shape characterization. Sum-frequency excitations convolved with the IRF are found to quantitatively reproduce the 2D-TTR signal. A new reduced density matrix model that incorporates sum-frequency pathways, with linear and harmonic operators, fully supports this (re)interpretation of the 2D-TTR spectra.
