Abstract
We study experimentally the dynamical and decay properties of the Stimulated Nutation Echo (SNE) in a two-level spin system. This is the signal which appears in the transient response of the system to the second pulse at time tau1 elapsed from its beginning and coinciding with the duration of the first pulse. The information about the first pulse duration is imprinted into the population difference of the inhomogeneously broadened ensemble of the two-level absorbers. The decay of the SNE signal has two contributions. One originates from the population decay during the time tau between the pulses. Another is caused by the coherence loss during the excitation by the first pulse and the reading time of the second pulse. Experimental results on the decay properties induced by these mechanisms are presented. The dependence of these decay rates on the pulse intensity is discussed, and its relationship with the anomalous (non-Bloch) decay of other coherent transients in solids is examined.
