Abstract

The relaxation dynamics of the longitudinal lower-energy component of the ((ν2 + ν4), ν3) polar two-phonon Fermi quadruplet in the ordered ammonium chloride crystal are investigated by coherent picosecond techniques. The results indicate that both frequency-modulation and occupation-number change play an important role in the coherent decay of this state.
