2D+1 spatial solitons in heavy metal oxide glass
2007
Two-dimensional self-confinement of near-infrared picosecond pulsed beams is demonstrated in a novel heavy metal-oxide glass, three-photon absorption being the stabilization mechanism to prevent catastrophic collapse.
Nonlinear Optical Characterization of InP@ZnS Core-Shell Colloidal Quantum Dots Using 532 nm, 10 ns Pulses
2021
InP@ZnS core-shell colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized and characterized using the z-scan technique. The nonlinear refraction and nonlinear absorption coefficients (γ = −2 × 10−12 cm2 W−1, β = 4 × 10−8 cm W−1) of these CQDs were determined using 10 ns, 532 nm pulses. The saturable absorption (β = −1.4 × 10−9 cm W−1, Isat = 3.7 × 108 W cm−2) in the 3.5 nm CQDs dominated at small intensities of the probe pulses (I ≤ 7 × 107 W cm−2) followed by reverse saturable absorption at higher laser intensities. We report the optical limiting studies using these CQDs showing the suppression of propagated nanosecond radiation in the intensity range of 8 × 107–2 × 109 W cm−2. The role of nonline…
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.
