Abstract:
An apparatus and method for measuring amplitude and/or phase of a molecular vibration uses a polarization modulated pump beam and a stimulating Stokes beam on a probe of a scanning probe microscope to detect a Raman scattered Stokes beam from the sample. The detected Raman scattered Stokes beam is used to derive at least one of the amplitude and the phase of the molecular vibration.
