State-to-state surface scattering of methane studied by bolometric infrared laser tagging detection

State-to-state molecule/surface scattering experiments prepare the incident molecules in a specific quantum state and measure the quantum state distribution of the scattered molecules. The comparison of state resolved experiments with theory can serve as s ...

Molecular Platform for Frequency Upconversion at the Single-Photon Level

Tobias Kippenberg, Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Philippe Andreas Rölli

Direct detection of single photons at wavelengths beyond 2 mu m under ambient conditions remains an outstanding technological challenge. One promising approach is frequency upconversion into the visible (VIS) or near-infrared (NIR) domain, where single-pho ...

Preparation and Decay of a Single Quantum of Vibration at Ambient Conditions

Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Vivishek Sudhir, Mitchell David Anderson, Santiago Tarrago Velez, Kilian Robert Seibold

A single quantum of excitation of a mechanical oscillator is a textbook example of the principles of quantum physics. But mechanical oscillators, despite their pervasive presence in nature and modem technology, do not genetically exist in an excited Fock s ...

Atmospheric particulate matter characterization by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy: a review of statistical calibration strategies for carbonaceous aerosol quantification in US measurement networks

Satoshi Takahama, Mária Lbadaoui-Darvas, Matteo Reggente, Adela Kuzmiaková, Charlotte Marie Bürki

Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) is a complex mixture of many different substances and requires a suite of instruments for chemical characterization. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is a technique that can provide quantification of multi ...

Two-Color Pump-Probe Measurement of Photonic Quantum Correlations Mediated by a Single Phonon

Vincenzo Savona, Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Hugo Pierre Alexandre Flayac, Mitchell David Anderson, Santiago Tarrago Velez, Kilian Robert Seibold

We propose and demonstrate a versatile technique to measure the lifetime of the one-phonon Fock state using two-color pump-probe Raman scattering and spectrally resolved, time-correlated photon counting. Following pulsed laser excitation, the n = 1 phonon ...

Quantum-state-resolved reactivity of overtone excited CH4 on Ni(111): Comparing experiment and theory

Rainer Beck, Phil Morten Hundt, Maarten Eduard van Reijzen

Quantum state resolved reactivity measurements probe the role of vibrational symmetry on the vibrational activation of the dissociative chemisorption of CH4 on Ni(111). IR-IR double resonance excitation in a molecular beam was used to prepare CH4 in three ...

Phonon Energy Gaps in the Charged Incommensurate Planes of the Spin-Ladder Sr14Cu24O41 Compound by Raman and Infrared Spectroscopy

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow

The terahertz (THz) excitations in the quantum spin-ladder system Sr14Cu24O41 have been determined along the c axis using THz time-domain, Raman, and infrared spectroscopy. Low-frequency infrared and Raman active modes are observed above and below the char ...
