Notes:
Femtosecond optical Kerr dynamics in various transparent liquids were measured using incoherent light with a 60 fs autocorrelation width. From the measurement of the optical Kerr effect (OKE) of binary mixtures of CS2 and various liquids, the contribution of the intermolecular interaction-induced polarizability change to the OKE was found to be affected remarkably by the femtosecond molecular dynamics of CS2. Especially, data from diluted solutions of CS2 in nonviscous solvents composed of molecules with a low molecular weight are consistent with the binary collision model in free space. An oscillatory feature, which was attributed to an intermolecular vibrational mode, was found in the OKE dynamics of neat benzene and several benzene derivatives. A theoretical expression for the delay-time dependence of the signal intensity was also derived with no restriction on the statistical properties of the incoherent light. It is expressed in terms of the autocorrelation function of the intensity fluctuation of the incident incoherent light which was utilized as both the pump and the probe.
