Wavelength dependence of nonlinear circular dichroism in a chiral ruthenium-tris(bipyridyl) solution

Abstract

Nonlinear circular dichroism is studied in a solution of ruthenium-tris(bipyridyl) salt in one-beam and pump-probe experiments by tuning the laser wavelength across the circular dichroism structure. The dispersion of the nonlinear circular dichroism is measured. This wavelength dependence is well accounted for by a model calculation where nonlocality is included in the optical response of a two-coupled-oscillator system. This calculation also allows us to address the question of the contribution of electric quadrupolarization to the nonlinear optical activity of an isotropic liquid of chiral molecules. © 2002 The American Physical Society
