摘要
The vibrational dynamics of chemisorbed CO on Pt(111) are investigated by picosecond IR transient saturation spectroscopy. An intense ps pump pulse excites the CO stretch vibration for CO/Pt(111) and the transient differential IR spectrum of the vibrationally excited adlayer is monitored with a second IR probe pulse. The transient spectrum exhibits a dispersive bandshape, with both bleach and absorption features. The transient spectrum appears prior to the pump pulse and decays within a few ps following the pump pulse. The results are interpreted by comparison with analogous measurements on metal carbonyl molecules, and model calculations including the effects of optical coherence.
