description High-resolution optical multidimensional coherent spectroscopy (MDCS) requires frequency-stable laser sources and high-resolution heterodyne spectra. Fully phase-locked dual-comb spectroscopy (DCS) enables the achievement of high resolution, high accuracy, broad bandwidth, and a rapid multi-heterodyne spectrum, which results in the DCS’s potential to replace the spectrometer and phase detection system in MDCS. We verified the phase measurement capability of the MDCS system based on fully phase-locked fiber DCS by studying phase-sensitive photon echoes and double-quantum processes. The accurate phase and frequency of linear and nonlinear signals were obtained simultaneously using a single detector without subsequent frequency drift correction. Subsequently, the acquisition of longtime quantum beat signals demonstrates the high phase coherence between excitation pulses. Additionally, the two-dimensional coherent spectrum (2DCS) with high signal-to-noise-ratio and 100 MHz resolution was obtained via the MDCS system based on fully phase-locked fiber DCS. These results exhibit that fully phase-locked fiber DCS is an effective method for high-resolution 2DCS measurement, which facilitates further research on cold atoms, higher-order nonlinear spectra, and molecular fingerprint vibrational spectroscopy.
