We present the results of nonlinear optical pump-probe experiments on photoactive yellow protein (PYP). We are able to completely bleach the 446 nm absorption peak of PYP by one-photon excitation using a cw argon laser. We calculate the corresponding index change and find it to be similar to that of bacteriorhodopsin. We also determine an upper limit to the two photon absorption cross-section of PYP by looking for bleaching of the 446 nm absorption peak under irradiation by femtosecond pulses at 820–910 nm. No TPA signal is observed.

We report on the transient optical response of the polydiacetylene DCHD at low temperature. Ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopic measurements reveal that excitation of the polymer N-methyl carbazolyl side group results in instantaneous (<10 ps) excitation transfer to the polymer backbone at 10 K. The slow population recovery signal seen subsequent to excitation transfer to the polymer backbone exhibits an excitation energy dependence that is indicative of the existence of multiple conformers. The energy barrier between these conformers is inferred to be <0.5 kcal/mol.
