By means of infrared pump-probe technique, spectroscopic feature of vibrationally excited water molecule (D2O) on mordenite zeolite (OD) has been investigated. Populational lifetime of the OD stretching band (ν3:2730cm-1) was determined to be 43±5 ps at 123 K by the time evolution of hot band. The transient bleachings and absorptions appeared when the D2O molecule was promoted to the vibrationally excited level of the OD stretching modes. Especially, the transient absorption at 2680 cm-1 has rapid decay time (≈15 ps) and it was assigned as the overtone between ν3 mode and vibrationally excited ν1 mode (2620 cm-1).

Interdot coherent excitonic dynamics in nanometric colloidal CdSe quantum dots (QD) dimers lead to interdot charge migration and energy transfer. We show by electronic quantum dynamical simulations that the interdot coherent response to ultrashort fs laser pulses can be characterized by pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopy in spite of the inevitable inherent size dispersion of colloidal QDs. The latter, leading to a broadening of the excitonic bands, induce accidental resonances that actually increase the efficiency of the interdot coupling. The optical electronic response is computed by solving the time-dependent Schrodinger equation including the interaction with the oscillating electric field of the pulses for an ensemble of dimers that differ by their size. The excitonic Hamiltonian of each dimer is parameterized by the QD size and interdot distance, using an effective mass approximation. Local and charge transfer excitons are included in the dimer basis set. By tailoring the QD size, the excitonic bands can be tuned to overlap and thus favor interdot coupling. Computed pump-probe transient absorption maps averaged over the ensemble show that the coherence of excitons in QD dimers that lead to interdot charge migration can survive size disorder and could be observed in fs pump-probe, four-wave mixing, or covariance spectroscopy.

Ensembles of~600 AlyIn1−yAs/AlxGa1−xAs self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) are investigated using photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved PL in the visible. At very low excitation intensities, the PL spectrum shows multiple ultranarrow luminescence lines (FWHM ~200 μeV), which are attributed to the ground-state transition of a few dots (4 or less). The temperature and intensity evolution of these sharp lines is then monitored. The temperature-dependent measurements show that the line width and lifetime of the narrow lines remain constant up to the onset of thermionic, emission. Intensity-dependent measurements show that for high excitation density the collective background, emitted by the ensemble of QDs, is enhanced relative to the amplitude of individual ultranarrow lines.
