Slides for PowerPoint: Nonlinear and Two-Dimensional Spectroscopy Andrei Tokmakoff MIT Department of Chemistry
Why 2D IR Spectroscopy? • IR spectroscopy • IR probes vibrations intrinsic to all molecules • Each vibration gives different information • Structure and dynamics • Intrinsic time-scale of ~1 ps • 2D IR spectroscopy: A more sensitive probe • Characterize vibrational correlations • Couplings, orientation, exchange • Resolves congested spectra & suppresses inhomogeneous broadening • Quantitative structure-based modeling
Polarization-selective pump-probe experiment Magic Angle: Vibrational Lifetime Anisotropy: Reorientation
ta – tb (fs) Peak Shift Measurement
2D IR Interferometer time/frequency detection time/time detection
2D IR spectroscopy • Related to the joint probability t2 = 0 t2 > tc Frequency Fluctuations Vibrational Couplings Chemical Exchange
Chemical exchange and spectral diffusion • Excite: Initial frequency w1 • Wait for period t2 • Detect: Final frequency w3 t2 → t2 = 0
