โฆ Synopsis
Picosecond delayed CARS experunents have been used to measure the hfetunes of the lcwcr energy iibrons III naphthalene At 15 K llfetimes of 225 + 10 ps for the Bg liiron (57 5 cm-') and 141 f 10 ps for the Ag hiron (69 cm-') are obtamed. From the temperature dependence of the liiron hfetunes we conclude that cubtc anharmomc phonon mteractlons are responsible for the libron decay. The importance of phonon wave vector phase-matchmg m the decay process 1s tnferred from the much haher effiaency of phonon up-than down-conversion Fmally the possible role of stunulated BriJloum suttertng m del&ed CARS IS dlscksed

Tie-resolved coherent anti-Stokes Raman experiments are reported for the benzene crystal 991 cm-' mode and in mixed C,H,/CeD, crystals. Addition of C,D, results in an increase in the rate at which the excitation is trapped-This is explained by the recent theory of Velsko and Hochstrasser which predi
