Abstract
We here report on double-resonance experiments using broadband chirped pulse Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy that can facilitate spectral assignment and yield information about weak transitions with high resolution and sensitivity. Using the diastereomers menthone and isomenthone, we investigate the dependence of pumping a radio frequency transition on both the amplitude and phase of the signal from a microwave transition with which it shares a common rotational level. We observe a strong phase change when scanning the radio frequency through molecular resonance. The direction of the phase change depends on the energy level arrangement, that is, if it is progressive or regressive. The experimental results can be simulated using the three-level optical Bloch equations and described with the AC Stark effect, giving rise to an Autler-Townes splitting.
