What is dephasing ? b w a If the state of a single two-level atom is: ρ(t) or ρ(t) are the population densities of states and . The density matrix, rij(t), is defined as: When laser beams with different k-vectors excite the atom, rij(t) tends to have a spatially sinusoidal variation. A grating is said to exist if ρaa(t) or ρbb(t)is spatially sinusoidal, A coherence is said to exist if rab(t) or rba(t) is spatially sinusoidal.
The main questions attempted to answer: • According to Mukamel, Ronis et al., the divergence of linewidth reflect the growing critical fluctuations near the gas-liquid critical point (CP). • However, the decay of frequency modulation time correlation function is rather fast 100 fs (0.1 ps) • Understanding the role of vibration-rotation coupling to the dephasing rate near CP Mukamel et al. PRL 50, 590 (1983)
