<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.
Optical grating recording in ChG thin film by electron beam
Abstract Recording capabilities of As Se S chalcogenide (ChG) glasses using electron beam (EB) lithography have been investigated in this study. After exposure with EB the thin films of these inorganic glasses can be etched in alkaline amine solvent with high selectivity. High resolution, smooth shaped structures have been fabricated using ChG thin films. Height of developed pattern can be controlled through changing applied electron dose.
Second harmonic generation in selenium-metal structures
The article examines the processes of second harmonic generation (SHG) when selenium-metal (Cu) film structures are illuminated by femtosecond radiation (180 fs, 80 MHz) at wavelength 800 – 1000 nm. Selenium-copper structures were obtained by successive thermal evaporation of selenium and copper onto the glass substrate in vacuum. Microanalysis of the film composition was performed to determine amount of copper in thin films. The as-evaporated selenium-copper structures were crystallised by annealing in inert atmosphere at temperature 85°C. Just evaporated as well as annealed thin films were explored. The experiment was performed by confocal microscope [1] where the femtosecond radiation fr…

Surface pattern recording in Sb2Se3 thin films
Abstract Results on the modification of Sb 2 Se 3 thin film surface topology by irradiation followed by wet-etching are given. Comparison of study results revealed the possible role of purely electronic and thermal processes in the relief formation. The latter is supposed to be connected with radiation-induced defect creation, free volume increase under the increased fluidity conditions as well as with the possible additional influence of electrostatic forces and stress. Changes in surface characteristics are presented and potential applications of this treatment are discussed.
