Excited-state vibrations are crucial for determining photophysical and photochemical properties of molecular compounds. Stimulated Raman scattering can coherently stimulate and probe molecular vibrations with optical pulses, but it is generally restricted to ground state properties. Working in resonance conditions, indeed, enables cross-section enhancement and selective excitation to a targeted electronic level, but is hampered by an increased signal complexity due to the presence of overlapping spectral contributions. Here, we show how detailed information on ground and excited state vibrations can be disentangled, by exploiting the relative time delay between Raman and probe pulses to control the excited state population, combined with a diagrammatic formalism to dissect the pathways concurring to the signal generation. The proposed method is then exploited to elucidate the vibrational properties of ground and excited electronic states in the paradigmatic case of Cresyl Violet. We anticipate that the presented approach holds the potential for selective mapping the reaction coordinates pertaining to transient electronic stages implied in photo-active compounds.
Stimulated Raman spectroscopy has become a powerful tool to study the spatiodynamics of molecular bonds with high sensitivity, resolution and speed. However, sensitivity and speed of state-of-the-art stimulated Raman spectroscopy are currently limite
