Abstract
A first infrared pulse at frequency ν1 interacts with vibrational states in S0 and a second visible pulse at ν2 promotes the excited molecules to the S1 state from where they fluoresce. Tuning the frequency ν2 over 600 cm-1 allows the observation of a detailed spectrum which gives information on vibrational states in S0 and on vibronic states in S1 together with corresponding Franck-Condon factors. The spectra differ drastically from the common broad and featureless absorption and fluorescence bands.
