Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Supercontinuum in the mid-infrared spectral region (MIR, 500-4000 cm-1) is a highly attractive light source for studies in molecular science since a number of molecular vibrations have resonance in this wavelength region. Ultrabroadband MIR continuum generated by using filamentation in gases is one of the most promising light sources. We have applied the light source for single-shot detection of entire MIR spectra by using chirped pulse upconversion. The technique has been applied to attenuated total reflectance MIR spectroscopy and ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy. Absorption spectra of liquids and reflectance change due to free carrier in the range from 200 to 5000cm-1 were measured with a visible spectrometer on a single-shot basis.
