چکیده

In this paper we are introducing a new single shot method for measuring the nonlinear refractive index of materials in a simple interferometric pump-probe configuration. The theoretical model proposed for extracting the nonlinear refractive index from the experimental fringe pattern and the experimental configuration are presented and discussed. The results obtained by this method are in good agreement with that obtained on the same sample using the conventional Z-scan method.

Measuring the temperature dependence of refractive index in water phantom for precise monitoring of the absorbed dose by radiation therapy techniques

In this paper, an experimental setup is used to measure the temperature dependence of the refractive index of a water phantom. In radiation calorimetry by laser beams and interferometric systems, the amount of change induced by radiation within the phantom can be accurately measured. Absorption of dose and the resulted change in temperature changes the refractive index within the material. In o...

Study of nonlinear optical properties of Carbon nanotubes synthesized by Nickel and Nickel-Cobalt catalysts using Z-scan technique

The nonlinear optical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been studied by using the Z-scan technique. Experiments are performed by CW second harmonic of Nd-YAG laser at 532 nm wavelength with a power of 40 mW. The samples are synthesized by the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method in the presence of Nickel and Nickel-Cobalt catalysts. In this work, for the first time, effect of the typ...

Investigation of nonlinear optical properties of Ag nanoparticles

In this research, Ag nanoparticles were prepared by using g-radiation at concentration of 5.18×10-3 M and irradiated at different doses. A green laser was employed as excited source for measuring nonlinear refractive index and absorption coefficient. The measurements were done by z-scan method for both, closed and open aperture at temperature room. We deduced that with growth of size of Ag nano...

Interferometric Method for the Study of Spatial Phase Modulation Induced by Light in Dye-doped Dna Complexes

An interferometric pump-probe method for the investigation of the spatial phase modulation induced by light in nonlinear optical samples is presented. The optical phase of a probe beam passing through the sample is modified by the refractive index change induced by a pump beam. Consequently, the fringe pattern obtained at the output of the interferometer is modified. A Fourier transform algorit...

Dispersion and Nonlinearity in Ultra-Optical Ga2O3 and TiO2-Bi2O3-PbO Glass Systems

Dispersion, as the characteristic variation of refractive index with wavelength, is more pronounced, where the wavelength is approaching to the absorption band. In ultra-optical glasses, the nonlinear refractive index, concerning to the light intensity dependent phenomenon, becomes considerable. Here, two ultra-optical property glass systems; TiO2-Bi2O3-PbO (TBP...
