We demonstrate two-dimensional ultrafast fourier transform spectroscopy in the deep ultraviolet (approximately 260 nm) using an acousto-optic modulator based pulse shaper. The use of a pulse shaper in the ultraviolet allows for rapid scanning, high phase (time) stability (approximately 0.017 rad) and phase cycling. We present measurements on the DNA nucleobase Adenine.
