Gs. Jas et al., STEP-SCAN NEAR-INFRARED FOURIER-TRANSFORM RAMAN-SPECTROSCOPY WITH 100PICOSECOND LASER-PULSES, Spectrochimica acta. Part A: Molecular spectroscopy, 50(11), 1994, pp. 1825-1831
Time-resolved Fourier-transform Raman scattering with picosecond excit
ation is reported for the first time. The resonance Raman spectrum of
9,10-diphenylanthracene in its excited single state was obtained by Ra
man excitation at 1064 nm with 100 ps pulses, following photoexcitatio
n at 355 nm. The implementation and characterization of time-resolved
FT-Raman spectroscopy with a step-scan interferometer is discussed. FT
-Raman spectra generated with continuous and mode-locked beams in the
continuous-scan mode of the interferometer are compared with step-scan
FT-Raman spectra generated with 2 kHz pulses.
