We present a new design of a setup for simultaneous time-resolved circular dichroism (TRCD) and transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy with fs temporal resolution. We use a pump–probe approach by exciting the sample with a linearly polarized pump pulse and detecting the difference in absorption of left- and right-circularly polarized probe pulses. The key optical element is a polarization grating, out of which the positive (negative) first order of the diffracted light is left- (right-)circularly polarized. We demonstrate the power of this method on a chiral squaraine polymer, which shows ultrafast relaxations of chiral excitons. According to our calculations that are based on a Frenkel exciton Hamiltonian with quantum chemically parameterized excitonic couplings, using the helix model described in [1], exciton relaxation can be much better resolved with TRCD than with TA.
