Absorption spectrum of molecules in a nonthermal vibrational field

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

The effects of nonthermal vibrations on light absorbing molecules are investigated. The average over the phase fluctuations of nonthermal vibrations is carried out using a new statistical theorem. In the absorption spectrum the zero phonon line is found to be suppressed and the phonon side bands differ in shape from those in the thermal case. The temperature dependence is discussed.
