22 We need him. For a velocity of one kilometer per second and a distance of one angstrom, the time scale is about 100 fs. A.H. Zewail, Femtochemistry, vol. II, page xv, world scientific publishing, fs is the vibrational period of a covalent bond (Tutorials in Molecular Reaction Dynamics, ISBN )

25 F + Na 2 --> [NaNaF] # * --> Na * + NaF τ(na * ) ~ 10-8 s τ([nanaf] #* ) ~ s Therefore, fluorescence intensity of the [NaNaF] # intermediate is only ~ 10 4 compared with Na * reaction product Would be difficult to detect with time integrated techniques But, detecting a signal while a pulse interacts with a sample is difficult. Thus, the pulse can burry processes with short timescale. A.H. Zewail, Science 242 (1988) τ = lifetime

32 mirror mirror LASER pulse mirror probe dt pump sample Detector
33 pump probe delay time The pump pulse transitions the sample from an initial state to another (excited) state. Excited state decays. The probe pulse transfers the exited state into another state. That state generates a signal proportional to its population (see examples).
34 Even in 2017 the fastest electronics cannot measure femtosecond transients directly. Correct: Yes Therefore, pump-probe techniques are used. I am confused: how can one now make fs delays? Does the delay require any fast electronics? Nope. Use optical delay line. t = 10fs x = 3 µm path length
