Three-color coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering represents non-degenerate four wave mixing process that includes both a non-resonant and resonant processes, the contributions of which depend on how the molecular vibrational modes are being excited by the input laser pulses. Non-degenerate four wave mixing processes are complex and understanding these processes requires rigorous data analytical tools, which still lack in this research field. In this work, we introduce one- and two-dimensional intensity-intensity correlation functions in terms of a new variable (e.g., probe pulse delay) and new perturbation parameter (e.g., probe pulse linewidth). In particular, diagonal projections are defined here as a tool to reduce both synchronous and asynchronous two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy analyses down to one-dimensional analysis, revealing valuable analytical information. Detailed analyses using the all Gaussian coherent Raman scattering closed-form solutions and the representative experimental data for resonant and non-resonant processes are presented and compared. This intensity-intensity correlation analytical tool holds a promising potential in resolving and visualizing resonant versus non-resonant four wave mixing processes for quantitative label-free species-specific nonlinear spectroscopy and microscopy.

As optical two-dimensional coherent spectroscopy (2DCS) is extended to a broader range of applications, it is critical to improve the detection sensitivity of optical 2DCS. We developed a fast phase-cycling scheme in a non-collinear optical 2DCS impl ementation by using liquid crystal phase retarders to modulate the phases of two excitation pulses. The background in the signal can be eliminated by combining either two or four interferograms measured with a proper phase configuration. The effectiveness of this method was validated in optical 2DCS measurements of an atomic vapor. This fast phase-cycling scheme will enable optical 2DCS in novel emerging applications that require enhanced detection sensitivity.
An $it{ab ,, initio}$ based fully microscopic approach is applied to study the nonlinear optical response of bulk Tellurium. The structural and electronic properties are calculated from first principles using the shLDA-1/2 method within density funct ional theory. The resulting bandstructure and dipole matrix elements serve as input for the quantum mechanical evaluation of the anisotropic linear optical absorption spectra yielding results in excellent agreement with published experimental data. Assuming quasi-equilibrium carrier distributions in the conduction and valence bands, absorption/gain and spontaneous emission spectra are computed from the semiconductor Bloch and luminescence equations. For ultrafast intense off-resonant excitation, the generation of high-harmonics is evaluated and the emission spectra are calculated for samples of different thickness.
Since its first demonstration in the sixties, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) has become a powerful spectroscopic sensing tool with broad applications in biology and chemistry. However, it is a complex nonlinear optical process that ofte n leads to the lacks of quantitative data outputs. In this letter, we observe how CARS signal builds up gradually and demonstrate how to control its deferral with laser-pulse shaping. A time-resolved three-color CARS that involves a pair of driving broadband femtosecond pulses and delayed shaped probe pulse is realized experimentally. Driving pulses are tuned to the Raman-resonance onto the vibrational ring modes of pyridine and benzene molecules. As a result, CARS-buildup is deferred in picoseconds as delayed probe pulse width varies from 50 down to 10 cm-1. With off-resonant driving of water molecules this effect, in contrary, does not occur. Laser control predicting deferred resonant processes can serve as a novel and important species-specific indicator in, e.g., machine learning applications for future nonlinear optical spectroscopy.
We consider Feshbach scattering of fermions in a one-dimensional optical lattice. By formulating the scattering theory in the crystal momentum basis, one can exploit the lattice symmetry and factorize the scattering problem in terms of center-of-mass and relative momentum in the reduced Brillouin zone scheme. Within a single band approximation, we can tune the position of a Feshbach resonance with the center-of-mass momentum due to the non-parabolic form of the energy band.
High speed optical telecommunication is enabled by wavelength division multiplexing, whereby hundreds of individually stabilized lasers encode the information within a single mode optical fiber. In the seek for larger bandwidth the optical power sent into the fiber is limited by optical non-linearities within the fiber and energy consumption of the light sources starts to become a significant cost factor. Optical frequency combs have been suggested to remedy this problem by generating multiple laser lines within a monolithic device, their current stability and coherence lets them operate only in small parameter ranges. Here we show that a broadband frequency comb realized through the electro-optic effect within a high quality whispering gallery mode resonator can operate at low microwave and optical powers. Contrary to the usual third order Kerr non-linear optical frequency combs we rely on the second order non-linear effect which is much more efficient. Our result uses a fixed microwave signal which is mixed with an optical pump signal to generate a coherent frequency comb with a precisely determined carrier separation. The resonant enhancement enables us to operate with microwave powers three order magnitude smaller than in commercially available devices. We can expect the implementation into the next generation long distance telecommunication which relies on coherent emission and detection schemes to allow for operation with higher optical powers and at reduced cost.
