Abstract

A review of femtosecond experiments on photon echo (PE) and four-wave mixing (FWM) performed at room temperature is presented. The Weiner–Ippen technique of FWM spectroscopy is demonstrated in dye-doped polymer films (such as polyvinilbutural doped with phthalocyanine), semiconductors (CdS) and heterostructures (GaAs/AlGaAs). The experimental setup used in these experiments is described. The dephasing times are estimated and the relaxation mechanisms are discussed.
