Floquet state spectroscopy is an optical analogue of multiple quantum coherence nuclear magnetic resonance (MQC-NMR). Tunable ultrafast excitation pulses resonantly excite multiple states in a sample to form the Floquet state. The Floquet state emits multiple coherent beams at frequencies and in directions that conserve energy and momenta. The different output beams differ in the time ordering and coherences created by the excitation beams. They correspond to the different methodologies in the NMR family. Isolating a specific beam and monitoring the output intensity as a function of excitation frequencies creates multidimensional spectra containing cross-peaks between coupled states. The frequency range of the multidimensional spectra is limited by phase matching constraints. This paper presents a new, to the best of our knowledge, active phase matching strategy that increases the versatility of multidimensional Floquet state spectroscopy through both longer sample path lengths and larger spectral ranges.
