Abstract
Various protein functions are related to vibrational energy transfer (VET) as an important mechanism. The underlying transfer pathways can be experimentally followed by ultrafast Vis-pump/IR-probe spectroscopy with a donor-sensor pair of non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) incorporated in a protein. However, so far only one donor ncAA, azulenylalanine (AzAla), exists, which suffers from a comparably low Vis extinction coefficient. Here, we introduce two novel donor ncAAs based on an iminothioindoxyl (ITI) chromophore. The dimethylamino-ITI (DMA-ITI) and julolidine-ITI (J-ITI) moieties overcome the limitation of AzAla with a 50 times higher Vis extinction coefficient. While ITI moieties are known for ultrafast photoswitching, DMA-ITI and J-ITI exclusively form a hot ground state on the sub-ps timescale instead, which is essential for their usage as vibrational energy donor. In VET measurements of donor-sensor dipeptides we investigate the performance of the new donors. We observe 20 times larger signals compared to the established AzAla donor, which opens unprecedented possibilities for the study of VET in proteins.

Abstract
The enhancement effect of vibrational coherence by femtosecond degenerate four-wave-mixing (DFWM) technique was investigated with a dye, NK-2990, doped in low temperature 1-propanol glass. The strongest enhancement was observed with the delay between the first and the second pulses, t(13), set at about quarter of the oscillation period, which does not coincide with the theoretical prediction of half the period. One of the enhanced vibrational modes at ca. 90 cm(-1) became significantly broader below the glass transition temperature, indicating its sensitivity towards microscopic viscosity of the environment.

Abstract
Femtosecond near-infrared laser microscope was developed with a home-built cavity-dumped chromium:forsterite laser as a light source centered at 1.26 microm. Optimization of the pulse duration achieved 35 fs fwhm at the sample position of the microscope after passing through a 100x objective. This system was applied to the detection of multiphoton fluorescence of some organic microcrystals. Excitation intensity dependence and the interferometric autocorrelation detection of the fluorescence clearly demonstrated that simultaneous three- and four-photon absorption processes are responsible for the production of the excited state for perylene and anthracene microcrystals, respectively. The spatial resolution along the optical axis and its dependence on the order of the multiphoton process were also discussed.

Abstract
Vibrational coherence in the degenerate four-wave-mixing (DFWM) signal generated from polymer films doped with a dye, oxazine 4 (Ox4), at 10 K was investigated. It was found that the amplitudes of some low-frequency oscillations (<400 cm(-1)) were enhanced when the delay between the first and second femtosecond pulses was set out of phase with the oscillation period. Frequency and reorganization energy dependence was investigated by computer simulation based on the response function formalism which considers all the possible Liouville space pathways for the DFWM signal. It was revealed that low-frequency oscillations with weak coupling to the optical transition can be enhanced in the stimulated photon echo signal compared to the transient grating signal.
