Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering in benzene and nitromethane shock-compressed to 10 GPa

Conference ·

The frequency shifts of the ring-stretching mode of shock-compressed liquid benzene and the CN stretching mode of nitromethane have been measured using coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering. Shock pressures up to 11 GPa were achieved using a two-stage light gas gun. The frequency shifted Raman signal was generated using single pulse Nd:YAG and broadband-type lasers. 16 refs., 3 figs.
