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

“…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. …”
