Abstract

Coherent multidimensional spectroscopy is a field that has drawn much attention as an optical analogue to multidimensional nuclear magnetic resonance imaging. Coherent multidimensional spectroscopic techniques produce spectra that show the magnitude of an optical signal as a function of two or more pulsed laser frequencies. Spectra can be collected in either the frequency or the time domain. In addition to improving resolution and overcoming spectral congestion, coherent multidimensional spectroscopy provides the ability to investigate and conduct studies based upon the relationship between different peaks. The purpose of this paper is to provide a general introduction to the area of coherent multidimensional spectroscopy, to provide a brief overview of current experimental approaches, and to discuss some emerging developments in this relatively young field.
