Modified Z-scan techniques for investigations of nonlinear chiroptical effects.
We present simple modifications of the classic Z-scan technique for the investigations of nonlinear chiroptical effects, i.e. nonlinear circular birefringence and two-photon circular dichroism. Two methods for studying these effects: a "polarimetric Z-scan" and a "polarization modulated Zscan" are described in detail. These techniques were applied to estimate the order of magnitude of the effec...
متن کاملFemtosecond Z-scan measurements of nonlinear refraction in nonlinear optical crystals
We report an investigation of third-order optical nonlinearities in several nonlinear optical crystals using the Z-scan technique with femtosecond laser pulses at 780 nm wavelength. The crystals studied include LiNbO3:MgO, KTiOAsO4, KTiOPO4, b-BaB2O4 and LiB3O5, which are extensively used for ultrashort-pulse second-harmonic generation and optical parametric oscillation. The nonlinear refractiv...
متن کاملThe third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility of gold
We critically analyze reported measured values of the third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility χð3Þ of bulk gold. Reported values of this quantity span a range of more than three orders of magnitude. Much of this variation results from the use of different measurement procedures which are sensitive to different contributions to the nonlinear optical response. For example, values measured th...
متن کاملThe Third Order Nonlinear Optical behavior of Poly Ether Urethane
Poly (ether) urethane close/open cell (PEUCC/PEUOC) has been prepared by using in situ polymerization approach. The third-order optical nonlinearities of dissolved samples in DMF were characterized by Z-scan technique at the measurement wavelength of 532 nm. The synthesized samples were also examined by optical microscopy and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. The nonlinear refractive (NLR) indice...
متن کاملCross-propagating Beam-Deflection measurements of third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility
We extend our recently developed Beam-Deflection (BD) method which we used to determine the sign, magnitude, and ultrafast dynamics of bound electronic and nuclear nonlinear optical responses, to measure elements of the third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility tensor with longitudinal field components. In these measurements, in contrast to the conventional BD technique where excitation and ...
