Theoretical investigation of the temperature dependence of the fifth-order raman response function of fluid and liquid xenon
The temperature dependence of the fifth-order Raman response function, R-(5)(t(1),t(2)), is calculated for fluid xenon by employing a recently developed time-correlation function (TCF) theory. The TCF theory expresses the two-dimensional (2D) Raman quantum response function in terms of a two-time, computationally tractable, classical TCF. The theory was shown to be in excellent agreement with existing exact classical MD calculations for liquid xenon as well as reproducing line shape characteristics predicted by earlier theoretical work. It is applied here to investigate the temperature dependence of the fifth-order Raman response function in fluid xenon. In general, the characteristic line shapes are preserved over the temperature range investigated (for the reduced temperature points T* = 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0); differences in the signal decay times and a large decline in intensity with decreasing temperature (and associated anharmonicity) are observed. In addition, there are some signature features that were not observed in earlier results for T* = 1. The most dramatic difference in line shape is observed for the polarization condition, xxzzxx, that shows a vibrational echo peak. In contrast, the fully polarized signal changes mainly in magnitude.
