Real-time measurements of phonon lifetime using a streak-camera-Raman-induced phase-conjugation method.
A novel real-time technique to measure phonon dynamics using the Raman-induced phase-conjugation method in combination with streak-camera technology is described. The technique is used to determine vibrational and optical phonon dephasing kinetics of CS(2), calcite, and LiNbO(3) with a temporal resolution of 3 psec.
