Abstract

We demonstrate a method to collect purely absorptive three-dimensional (3D) fifth-order vibrational spectra on the model system CO(2) in H(2)O. The six beam interferometer is described, as well as a method to experimentally determine the phase of the 3D spectrum. The measured spectra agree very well with simulations of the data based on the cumulant expansion. There are five peaks corresponding to different paths up and down the vibrational ladder. The positions, signs, and amplitudes of the peaks agree with theoretical predictions, and the intensities of the peaks scale linearly with concentration. Based on the concentration dependence and agreement between the simulations and measurements, we conclude that cascaded lower order signals contribute negligibly to the observed signal.
