Abstract
We discuss theoretical approaches to nonlinear optical spectroscopy of molecular junctions. Optical response functions are derived in the form convenient for implementation of Green function techniques, and their expressions in terms of pseudoparticle nonequilibrium Green functions are proposed. The formulation allows to account for both intra-molecular interactions and hybridization of molecular states due to coupling to contacts. Two-dimensional optical spectroscopy in junctions is considered as an example.
