Amplitude Control of Phonon Oscillation in Diamond

Caption

Transmittance change of the probe pulse plotted against the delay of the probe pulse with respect to the second pump pulse for five different time gaps between the two pump pulses [(a) to (e)]. The spikes are caused by the overlapping of the probe pulse with the first or second pump pulse. The change in amplitudes of the sinusoidal waves after the second set of spikes confirms that the coherent control of phonons is realized by varying the time gap.
