Vibrational fingerprints of molecules and lowdimension materials can be traced with subnanometer resolution by performing Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) in a localization of light in the plasmonic nanocavity of the STM enables high spatial resolution in STM-TERS; however, the temporal resolution is so far limited. Here, we demonstrate stable TERS measurements from subphthalocyanine (SubPc) molecules excited by similar to 500 fs long laser pulses in a low-temperature (LT) ultrahigh-vacuum (UHV) STM. The intensity of the TERS signal excited with ultrashort pulses scales linearly with the increasing flux of the laser pulses and exponentially with the decreasing gap-size of the plasmonic nanocavity. Furthermore, we compare the characteristic features of TERS excited with ultrashort pulses and with a continuous-wave (CW) laser. Our work lays the foundation for future experiments of time-resolved femtosecond TERS for the investigation of molecular dynamics with utmost spatial, temporal, and energy resolutions simultaneously.
