Property frequency change-response

Usually, the frequency-dependent response properties are of interest, so that the frequency-dependent density response Spa(ry,co) to the potential change <5vscr (r2, t>) is considered in TDDFRT. It is obtained with the Fourier transformation of 8pa(ri,t) of (12)... 

Up to this point, we have calculated the linear response of the medium, a polarization oscillating at the frequency m of the applied field. This polarization produces its own radiation field that interferes with the applied optical field. Two familiar effects result a change in tlie speed of the light wave and its attenuation as it propagates. These properties may be related directly to the linear susceptibility The index of... 

Slip is not always a purely dissipative process, and some energy can be stored at the solid-liquid interface. In the case that storage and dissipation at the interface are independent processes, a two-parameter slip model can be used. This can occur for a surface oscillating in the shear direction. Such a situation involves bulk-mode acoustic wave devices operating in liquid, which is where our interest in hydrodynamic couphng effects stems from. This type of sensor, an example of which is the transverse-shear mode acoustic wave device, the oft-quoted quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), measures changes in acoustic properties, such as resonant frequency and dissipation, in response to perturbations at the surface-liquid interface of the device. 

In the typical setup, excitation light is provided by a pulsed (e.g., nanosecond) laser (emitting in the visible range, e.g., at 532 nm, if Mb is investigated), while the probe is delivered by a continuous-wave (cw) laser. The two beams are spatially overlapped in the sample, and the temporal changes in the optical properties (such as optical absorption or frequency shift) that follow the passage of the pump pulse are registered by a detector with short response time (relative to time scale of the processes monitored), such as a fast photodiode.
