Abstract
In this work, the absorptive and dispersive profiles of a molecular system have been calculated through a methodology based on the averaging of the coherence obtained by the resolution of the optical stochastic Bloch equations. To this aim, a generalized Lorentzian approximation to the Voigt function has been used as a probability distribution, which allows a more generalized analysis of the interactions between the solvent and the molecule. This has been modeled with the parameters of the standard organic dye Green Malaquite, which exhibits a nonlinear behavior under the interaction with a high intensity electric field. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
