<title>Second harmonic generation in selenium thin films</title>
Results of second harmonic (SH) generation in amorphous and crystalline selenium films induced by titanium-sapphire femtosecond laser (wavelength λ - 800-1000 nm) are presented. It is found that the highest intensity of SH is provided by fundamental wave at wavelength 1000 nm and it reaches maximum in approximately 100 sec. The intensity of transmitted SH depends on film thickness while that of reflected does not.

Effect of reflections on phase hologram recording in amorphous As-S-Se films
Experimental and theoretical studies of phase hologram recording in amorphous As-S-Se films with slightly wedge-shaped thickness profile are presented. It is shown that Fabry-Perot resonator effect caused by the interference of multiply reflected light beams inside the sample strongly changes the values of diffraction efficiency and its growth rate as well as the exposure time dependences of diffraction efficiency and transmissivity making them site-dependent and sample-dependent. Absorptivity and recording light intensity inside the sample are also significantly changed. The obtained results can be used to explain the holographic and optical experiments also in other materials with Fabry-P…
