Nonlinear rovibrational polarization response of water vapor to ultrashort long-wave infrared pulses

We study the rovibrational polarization response of water vapor using a fully correlated optical Bloch equation approach employing data from the HITRAN database. For a 10-mu m long-wave infrared pulse the resulting linear response is negative, with a negative nonlinear response at intermediate inten...
