摘要：

Time and frequency gating of molecular spontaneous emission at a less than one photon per mode level is achieved using phase matching properties of sum frequency generation in a 3 mm type I BBO crystal. The results of time and frequency resolved fluorescence measurements from a vibrational wavepacket in diatomic potassium molecules are presented. The experimental arrangement is simplified compared to the classical setup which uses a short crystal and monochromator. Both the signal and the signal to noise ratio increase.
