What are the Challenges in Time-Resolved Spectroscopy?
Despite its advantages, time-resolved spectroscopy comes with several challenges:
Sensitivity: Detecting low concentrations of transient species requires highly sensitive instruments. Temporal Resolution: Achieving ultrafast time resolution (femtoseconds to picoseconds) demands advanced laser systems and precise timing mechanisms. Data Interpretation: Complex spectra require sophisticated computational methods for accurate interpretation. Sample Stability: Repeated excitation can lead to sample degradation, complicating the measurements.
