Abstract

Three or more frequency components are used as deformation waveforms to perturb a sample during spectroscopic measurement. Simultaneously measuring more than one frequency allows for multiplexing. Further, many frequencies insure that the optimal perturbation frequencies for a particular measurement are present. The multiplex advantage of a particular spectroscopic instrument may accrue simultaneously with a multiplex advantage in the characterization of the time dependence of the sample response.
