An experimental investigation of the nonlinear refractive index (n2) of carbon disulfide and toluene by spectral shearing interferometry and z-scan t…
2003
International audience; The recently proposed spectral shear interferometry and the well-known z-scan techniques were employed for the determination of the nonlinear refractive index n2 of CS2, toluene and fused silica. The determined n2 values by both techniques were found to be in very good agreement. In addition, the role of the repetition rate of the laser is also investigated revealing its importance for the correct determination of both the size and the sign of the nonlinearity.
Third order nonlinear optical properties of novel TetrathiafulvalenePhenanthroline based dyads
2011
The non-linear optical properties of π-conjugated organic molecules such as TTF and their derivatives have recently gained particular interest due to their extended π-system and the strong electron donating character. The knowledge of the nonlinear optical response, as well as the impact of the charge transfer on the nonlinearity is very important. As such systems can be used in a variety of applications. In this study we investigate the nonlinear absorption of novel tetrathiafulvalene-phenanthroline based dyads by means of the Z-scan technique.
