Three-pulse photon echo of an excitonic dimer modeled via Redfield theory

Kjellberg, Pär LU and Pullerits, Tönu LU (2006) In Journal of Chemical Physics 124(2).
Abstract
In this article the third-order response of an excitonically coupled dimer is studied. The three-pulse photon echo signals were calculated by extracting polarization components from the total polarization in the corresponding phase-matched directions. The total nonlinear response was obtained by numeric propagation of the density matrix, with the exciton-vibrational coupling modeled via Redfield relaxation theory. The full two-dimensional three-pulse photon echo signals and the peak shift were analyzed in terms of the density-matrix dynamics of coherence dephasing and population relaxation. The location of the two-exciton state was found to be essential for proper modeling of the three-pulse photon echo. In particular, an oscillation in... (More)

The full two-dimensional three-pulse photon echo signals and the peak shift were analyzed in terms of the density-matrix dynamics of coherence dephasing and population relaxation. The location of the two-exciton state was found to be essential for proper modeling of the three-pulse photon echo. In particular, an oscillation in the three-pulse photon echo peak shift is found if the two-exciton state is displaced. The oscillations can be related to the dynamics of the one-exciton coherences.
