Abstract: | Vibrational Raman spectroscopy is performed in the gas phase using a femtosecond laser pulse undergoing filamentation as an impulsive excitation source. The molecular coherence induced by the filamentary pulse is subsequently probed using a narrowband, sub-picosecond laser pulse to produce Raman spectra of gas phase species in a few tens of milliseconds (~10 laser shots). Pulse shortening with concomitant spectral broadening during filamentation results in a pulse that is both sufficiently short and of sufficient spectral power density to impulsively excite the highest energy ground state vibrations (up to 4158 cm(-1) corresponding to H(2)). Gas phase detection of chloroform, methylene chloride, cyclohexane, toluene, pentane, triethylamine, ammonia, nitromethane, and gasoline is performed. |
