In this study, the nonlinear optical properties and optical limiting performance of the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in distilled water are investigated. The nonlinear absorption coefficient of the colloid is measured by the Z-scan technique. The optical limiting behavior of the AgNP suspension is investigated under exposure to nanosecond laser pulses at 532 nm. The results show that nonlinear ...

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...

In order to implement an integrated optical quantum circuit, designing waveguides based on the quantum box is of prime importance. To do this we have investigated optical waveguide both with and without optical pumping. The rate of absorption and emission using an array of AlGaAs/GaAs quantum box core/shell structure in the optical waveguide with various pumping intensities has computed. By con...

background: similar to the thermoluminescence (tl) spectra, the optical parameters variations can also be used in tl crystals for dosimetry purposes. these optical parameters can include absorption, transmission and reflection coefficients. materials and methods: single crystals of kbr and kcl which have been used in this research were grown from laboratory grade extra pure precursor powders. c...

Polyurethane closed cell (PUCC)/SiO2 nanocomposites have been prepared by using in situ polymerization approach. The third-order optical nonlinearities of PUCC/SiO2 nanocomposites, dissolved in DMF are characterized by Z-scan technique at the measurement wavelength of 532 nm. The nonlinear refractive (NLR) indices and nonlinear absorption (NLA) coefficients of samples were calculated from close...

The aim of this paper is to study the effect of Mn concentration on the structural, magneticand optical properties of TiO2 nanoparticles. TiO2 nanopowders with Mn concentration of 0%,0.2%, 1% and 5% were synthesized by the sol-gel method. The structural, surface morphologyand average crystal grain size, optical, magnetic properties and chemical compounds of thesamples are studied using XRD, FE-...

thin films of binary bi 0 -teo and bi 0 -v 0 systems were prepared by the thermal co-evaporation technique in a vacuum at room temperature. the optical absorption edge of these systems are studied in the wavelength of 200-800 nm using a perkin-elmer uv/vis spectrophotometer. it is found that the value of n=3/2 in the davis-mott equation is best fitted for the fundamental absorption edge for the...
