Second order interference in two photon absorption

Two photon absorption is considered in the context of second order coherence measurements. We examine second order interference fringes for the typical Doppler free spectroscopic layout which involves a retro-reflecting mirror. The fringes are manifested in the wings of the absorption spectrum and t...

Zusammenfassung:	Two photon absorption is considered in the context of second order coherence measurements. We examine second order interference fringes for the typical Doppler free spectroscopic layout which involves a retro-reflecting mirror. The fringes are manifested in the wings of the absorption spectrum and their observability requires partial decoherence of the exciting laser light.
