Phase-matching free pulse retrieval based on plasma-induced defocusing [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 A phase-matching free pulse retrieval technique based on plasma-induced defocusing in a rare gas is presented. Based on a pump-probe setup, this technique uses a moderately intense pump laser pulse for ionizing the medium, creating in turn an ultrafast ...

Phonon pump enhanced fast and slow light in a spinning optomechanical system
Results in Physics, 2021 We investigate the properties of the optical output fields in a spinning optomechanical system under the condition of optomechanically induced transparency (OMIT), where the cavity is optically driven by a strong pump field and a weak probe field and the

Incoherent control of optical signals: Quantum-heat-engine approach
Physical Review Research, 2021 Optical pump-probe signals can be viewed as work done by the matter while transferring the energy between two coherent baths (from pump to probe). In thermodynamics, a heat engine, such as a laser, is a device which performs similar work but operating ...

Controlled ultrafast ππ*-πσ* dynamics in tryptophan-based peptides with tailored micro-environment
Communications Chemistry, 2021 Pump-probe experiments in the gas phase usually target neutral molecules. Here the authors couple an electron spray source with ultrafast pump-probe UV-Vis spectroscopy, to follow the ππ*-πσ* coupling in tryptophan-based ions.

Pump-probe scheme for optical coherence tomography using indocyanine green mixed with albumin or human plasma [PDF]
, 2005 Use of indocyanine green (ICG) in a pump-probe scheme for OCT is proposed. The study illustrates that ICG in protein solution shows unusual pump-probe imaging potential, indicating its usefulness as a contrast agent for ...
