By using a combination of an initial pump pulse and a degenerate four-wave mixing process, we show that an interrogation of the vibrational dynamics occurring in different electronic states of molecules is possible. The technique is applied to iodine. The initial pump pulse is used to populate the B((3)Pi) state of molecular iodine in the gas phase. Now, by using an internal time delay in the DFWM process, which is resonant with the transition between the B state and a higher lying ion-pair state, the vibrational dynamics of the B state and the ion-pair state could be observed. States of even symmetry are investigated, which are accessed by a one photon transition from the B state. By a proper choice of the wavelengths used for the pump and DFWM beams, the dynamics of ion-pair states belonging to two different tiers are monitored.
