Ultrafast Measurements of Coherent Vibrations in Benzenethiol Monolayer Film

Ultrafast photo-reflectance at a monolayer film of benzentiol molecule adsorbed on a gold surface was measured by means of pump-probe method using an ultrashort pulse laser. The surface-sensitive transient response in THz region revealed coherent motion of the molecules affected by the adsorption.
