Abstract: | Picosecond delayed CARS experiments on totally symmetric modes in naphthalene at 1.5 K are reported. The Raman lineshape of the vibrational excitons is lorentzian and vibrational relaxation can be surprisingly slow. The Raman lineshape of the Ag exciton level of the 766 cm?1 vibrational mode reveals that the low-temperature lorentzian lineshape occurs by motional narrowing At higher temperature the exciton is trapped by interaction with lattice phonons. |
