摘要
Femtosecond IR and Raman techniques are compared with respect to their abilities to monitor vibrational relaxation following ultrafast internal conversion. The study was performed on para-nitroaniline which undergoes sub-picosecond internal conversion to the ground state populating a variety of vibrational modes. The NO, stretch vibration at 1315 cm(-1) responds to the excitation by a strong red shift, visible in transient IR and Raman experiments. It is due to the off-diagonal anharmonic coupling with other modes. The population of the NO2 stretch mode itself can only be observed in the (anti-Stokes) Raman spectrum, whereas IR spectroscopy is superior in detecting the coupling induced shift.
