This grant in Experimental Physical Chemistry supports the research of          Professor Andreas C. Albrecht in the area of nonlinear optical                  spectroscopy, a scientific field that is concerned with the absorption          of more than one photon of light simultaneously.                                                                                                                This project is considered a continuation of Dr. Albrecht's research            on fundamental aspects of light-matter interactions. Here he will carry         out three specific projects.  The first hopes to use three-color                resonant fourwave mixing to extract transverse and longitudinal                 relaxation times of vibronic levels that make up inhomogeneously                broadened electronic transitions.  The second will develop resonant             third harmonic generation from condensed phase molecular solutions as a         viable spectroscopy and study it in unison with three-photon absorption         measurements on the same system.  Finally an experimental project is            proposed which examines light induced extra resonances in resonance             secondary radiation that have been predicted theoretically.  The latter         represents a first attempt to alter the Raman/resonance fluorescence            balance by controlling the properties of the exciting light.
