Femtosecond photoinduced birefringence in vapor, liquid and supercritical carbon dioxide

Using the Optical Kerr Gate (OKG) technique, the nonlinear index of refraction and femtosecond molecular relaxation processes for carbon dioxide in the vapor, liquid and supercritical states were determined. At all experimental conditions (22 and 35°C and 500–3000 psi) molecular reorientational dyna...

Description
Summary:Using the Optical Kerr Gate (OKG) technique, the nonlinear index of refraction and femtosecond molecular relaxation processes for carbon dioxide in the vapor, liquid and supercritical states were determined. At all experimental conditions (22 and 35°C and 500–3000 psi) molecular reorientational dynamics were completed within 500 fs.
