What are the intensities and line-shapes of the twenty four polarization terms in coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy? by Niu, Kai, Lee, Soo-Ying

“…The twenty four polarization terms can be calculated in the multidimensional, separable harmonic oscillator model to obtain the intensities and line-shapes. It is shown that in fs/ps CARS, for the two cases of off-resonance CARS in toluene and resonanceCARS in rhodamine 6G, where we use a fs pump pulse, a fs Stokes pulse and a ps probe pulse, we obtain sharp vibrational lines in four of the polarization terms where the pump and Stokes pulses can create a vibrational coherence on the ground electronic state, while the spectral line-shapes of the other twenty terms are broad and featureless. …”

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) enhanced biosensors by Zhang, Jinling

“…For example, binding of molecules in the vicinity of the surface induces the refractive index changes, which causes variations in the extinction spectra, eg. shift in peak position at a particular wavelength and/or line shape. The sensitivity, specificity, selectivity, robustness, portability, speed and costs are the significant evaluation factors of a biosensor. …”

Enhanced coupled-resonator-induced transparency and optical fano resonance via intracavity backscattering by Ang, Thomas Y. L., Ngo, Nam Quoc

“…In addition, it is found that the symmetric CRIT peaks can be reshaped into asymmetric OFR line shapes either by using TWMRs with different intracavity backscattering strengths when one input is launched into the circuit or by modulating the phase/amplitude difference between the dual contrapropagating inputs, which are launched into the circuit in the presence of intracavity backscattering. …”

High-intensity two-frequency photoassociation spectroscopy of a weakly bound molecular state : theory and experiment by Kon, W. Y., Aman, J. A., Hill, J. C., Killian, T. C., Hazzard, Kaden R. A.

“…With numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, we show that this model accurately captures (1) the existence of experimentally observed satellite peaks that arise from nonlinear processes, (2) the locations of the two-photon peak in the spectrum, including AC Stark shifts, and (3) in some cases, spectral line shapes. To better understand these numerical results, we develop an approximate treatment of this model, based on Floquet and perturbation theory, that gives simple formulas that accurately capture the halo-state energies. …”
