Abstract

We review the use of coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) spectroscopy for rotationally and vibrationally resolved detection of photofragments and reaction products, and the complementary use of stimulated Raman excitation (SRE) for vibrational excitation of diatomic and polyatomic reactants. We illustrate the advantages and disadvantages of these techniques by consideration of a few selected recent experiments in our lab.
