Abstract
Time-delayed wave-mixing with broadband dye lasers was performed in a solut ion of Sulforhodamine 640 in ethanol at room temperature. The experiments w ere conducted at various laser powers. The results at low intensities show the behavior of the S-0-S-1 transition as homogeneous. At high intensities the transition reveals inhomogeneous broadening which is attributed to the redistribution of the vibrational population. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevie r Science B.V.
