The vibrational energy deposited in a liquid by stimulated Raman gain was detected using the thermal lens scheme. The technique was demonstrated using benzene and toluene, with a frequency doubled Q‐switched Nd–YAG laser and a tunable dye laser. The rise time of the thermal lens signal was recorded with the object of obtaining information on vibrational to translational energy transfer processes.
