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, β-BaB2O4 and LiB3O5, which are extensively used for ultrashort-pulse second-harmonic generation and optical parametric oscillation. The nonlinear refractive index n2 in these crystals has been determined to be in the range from 10−16 to 10−15 cm2/W. No two-photon absorption has been observed. The experimental results are compared with the two-band model for the bound electronic Kerr nonlinearity. It is shown that the measured n2 values in β-BaB2O4 and LiB3O5 are one order of magnitude smaller than those of LiNbO3:MgO, KTiOAsO4, KTiOPO4, which is in agreement with the theoretical prediction. 相似文献

The structural, optical, and nonlinear optical properties of the manganese nanoparticles prepared by laser ablation in various liquids were investigated using the 532 and 1064 nm, 50 ps laser pulses. The TEM and spectral measurements showed temporal dynamics of size distribution of Mn nanoparticles in solutions. The nonlinear absorption (β = 2 × 10−10 and 4 × 10−11 cm W−1) and positive nonlinear refraction (γ = 8 × 10−15 and 2 × 10−14 cm2 W−1) of picosecond radiation were observed in the Mn colloidal suspensions using the 1064 and 532 nm radiation, respectively 相似文献

Ag and Cu nanowires were separately fabricated in a direct current electric field using a solid-state ionic method, and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Their optical nonlinearities induced by 8 ns laser pulses from a frequency-doubled, Nd:YAG laser at 532 nm, were investigated using the Z-scan technique. Experimental results indicate the metal nanowires have obvious positive refractive nonlinearities and reverse saturated absorption behaviors. The self-focusing behaviors of Ag and Cu nanowires can be attributed to Kerr-induced self-focusing of laser radiation, the nonlinear refractive indexes of Ag and Cu nanowires are n2 = 1.7 × 10− 11 esu and n2 = 2.4 × 10− 11 esu respectively, and the two-photon process of Ag and the one-photon process of Cu are responsible for the difference between Ag and Cu nanowires suspended in de-ionized water in nanosecond nonlinear absorptions. 相似文献

The synthesis and characterization of novel micellar nanohybrids with controllable sizes consisting of palladium nanosized core and covered by well-defined poly(lauryl methacrylate)-block-poly(2-(acetoacetoxy)ethyl methacrylate) (pLauMA-b-pAEMA) diblock copolymers are reported. Their nonlinear optical (NLO) response (i.e. nonlinear refraction and absorption and the third-order susceptibility χ(3)) is also studied under 35 ps laser excitation both in the visible and in the infrared and found to be insensitive to the size of the micelles while it was found to be greatly affected by the molar fraction of the AEMA block. To the best of our knowledge it is the first time that such Pd micellar nanohybrids are synthesized and investigated towards their NLO properties. The magnitude of the nonlinear optical response of these nanohybrids renders them promising candidates for potential optoelectronic applications. 相似文献

The single beam Z-scan technique has been used to measure the third-order nonlinear refractive index, γ, the two-photon absorption coefficient, ß, and the variation of refractive index per unit photoexcited carrier density σr, and the free carrier absorption cross section σab for quantum-confined Fe2O3 nanoparticles coated by a layer of organic molecular in toluene and bare particles in hydrosol. For coated Fe2O3 nanoparticles, the ratio γ/ß is enhanced by a factor of five compared to the bare sample. Their figures of merit related to linear and two-photon absorption for ultrafast all-optical devices application were determined. 相似文献

Preparations of PbS-coated titanium dioxide (TiO2) and lead sulfide (PbS) nanoparticles under ultrasonic field at the multibubble sonoluminescence (MBSL) conditions were tested in water solutions. Under the optimal MBSL conditions (20 kHz and 220 W power input), PbS nanoparticles (diameter = 40-50 nm) were prepared by treating lead nitrate and thioacetamide for 20 min in water solutions. The size of PbS nanoparticles was found to be easily increased to about 90 nm in diameter by increasing the reactant concentration twice. A similar sonochemical reaction with TiO2 nanoparticles (about 20-30 nm in diameter) gave rise to PbS-coated TiO2 nanoparticles with a core/shell structure. The PbS thin film coating was quite uniform and the average coating depth of PbS on the TiO2 nanoparticles was about 2-3 nm under the described conditions. It is interesting to note that the coating depth was found to be controlled to 2-10 nm range by increasing the amounts of reactants for Pb and S twice with a sonication time of 30 min. 相似文献

The nonlinear optical properties of p-aminoazobenzene (PAAB), methyl orange (MO) and p-dimethylamino benzene arsenic acid (PDBAA) were investigated by a single beam Z-scan technique, respectively. Their solution samples all exhibited large nonlinear refractive indices under the excitation of a 633 nm laser. Among the three azo dyes, PDBAA showed the largest value of nonlinear refractive index. Moreover, the process of nonlinear refraction induced by the laser thermal effect was also analyzed in this paper. 相似文献

Fluorescence and nonlinear optical properties of non-aggregating hexadeca-substituted phthalocyanine

Highly non-aggregating hexadeca-substituted phthalocyanine (Pc) complexes were prepared and their fluorescence and nonlinear optical properties were studied. Three visible fluorescence bands were observed when the Pc complexes were excited at 355 nm and found to be concentration dependent. They are attributed to the optical transitions S2 → S0 at 415 nm, T2 → T1 at 630 nm, and S2 → S1 at 755 nm. Nonlinear absorptive and refractive effects were measured with the help of Z-scan technique. Saturation absorption was observed at 632.8 nm where the nonlinear absorption coefficient is found to be very large (β = −2.8 × 10−2 cm/W) and the refractive nonlinear coefficient γ = −9.5 × 10−11 cm2/W. In the transparency domain at 532 nm, reverse absorption saturation is observed and β and γ are found to be 17.5 and 15.5 times smaller, respectively. Optical limiting performances are measured in the absorption and transparency domains. Purely refractive-based optical limiting at 632.8 nm is found to have a threshold of 0.16 kW/cm2, lower than the reverse absorption saturation and refractive-based optical limiting of 0.90 kW/cm2 at 532 nm. 相似文献

Biosynthesis of four samples of colloidal suspensions of gold nanoparticles is achieved using hydroalcoholic extract and three different separated compounds of the plant Bacopa procumbens. The nonlinear optical properties of each sample are characterized with the Z-scan technique. In all cases, the Z-scan curves indicate a negative or self-defocusing response, which is mainly attributed to thermal effects. Among the four samples, the hydroalcoholic extract was noted to have the highest nonlinear optical response and was selected to demonstrate the formation of self-collimated beams (SCBs). This kind of beams are obtained when a convergent CW laser, with only few tens of milliwatts of optical power, is introduced into the sample and induces a negative-lens effect that shifts the focal spot forward. As a result, the otherwise highly focused beam propagate with little divergence over lengths of up to 10?mm. Moreover, an SCB is capable of controlling and steering a weak probe beam of a different wavelength, since the probe experiences the lensing induced by the pump. Noteworthy, the response time of the material was found to be less than 0.07?s, which makes it a plausible candidate for photonic applications. 相似文献

A novel route was developed to prepare PbS and HgS nanocrystals in ethanol solvent in the presence of sodium hydroxide by microwave heating method. PbS and HgS nanocrystals were obtained with an average size of approximately 10 and 6 nm, respectively. In the reaction, mercury acetate and lead acetate were used as mercury and lead source; sulfur powder was employed as chalcogenide source. The products were characterized by X-ray powder analysis (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy. The probable mechanism was presented. 相似文献

Hybrid composites of CdSe nanocrystals embedded in allyl diglycol carbonate (CR39) matrices have been prepared and characterized. The measurements show that the linear refractive index of the composite decreases as the CdSe nanocrystal’s weight-percentage concentration increases at the laser wavelengths of 632.8 nm and 532 nm. The room temperature nonlinear optical properties of the hybrid composites were investigated using a single-beam Z-scan technique with femtosecond laser pulses at the wavelengths of 794 nm and 397 nm. The experimental data reveals that the Kerr nonlinear refractive index n2 of the composite increase at these wavelengths when the CdSe nanocrystal’s weight-percentage concentration increases. Also, the nonlinear refractive index n2 of the CdSe/CR39 hybrid composites exhibit dispersion from a positive value at 794 nm (below the band gap) to a positive value at 395 nm (above the band gap). The measured dispersion of n2 is roughly consistent with the Sheik-Bahae’s theory for the bound electronic nonlinear refraction resulting from the two-photon resonance. 相似文献

The nonlinear optical properties of the two oxazine dyes, i.e. oxazine 720 (OX720) and oxazine 750 (OX750), in aqueous solution and in polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAA) matrix were studied by Z-scan technique using CW He–Ne laser at 632.8 nm. All the polymeric and aqueous samples showed a negative nonlinearity and large nonlinear refractive index of the order of 10−8 cm2/W. The concentration-dependent nonlinear refractive index was also investigated. In the case of PAA–dye systems, two types of transit (fast) and steady state (slow) nonlinear effects were observed. It is believed that these effects are due to the thermo-optical induced refractive index gradient and a concentration gradient induced by a temperature gradient present in a medium. 相似文献

Lead Telluride (PbTe) nanorods have been uniformly grown on silicon substrates, using the thermal evaporation technique under high vacuum conditions. The structural and morphological studies are done using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Optical nonlinearity studies using the open aperture z-scan employing 5 ns and 100 fs laser pulses reveal a three-photon type absorption. For nanosecond excitation the nonlinear absorption coefficients (γ) are in the order of 10−22 m3 W−2 and for femtosecond excitation it is in the order of 10−29 m3 W−2. The role of free carriers and excitons in causing the nonlinearity in both excitation time domains is discussed. Results indicate that PbTe nanorods are good optical limiters with potential device applications. 相似文献

The magnetic behavior at room temperature of maghemite nanoparticles of variable sizes (from 7 to 20 nm) is compared using a conventional super quantum interference device (SQUID) and a recently patented technology, called MIAplex. The SQUID usually measures the magnetic response versus an applied magnetic field in a quasi-static mode until high field values (from -4000 to 4000 kA m(-1)) to determine the field-dependence and saturation magnetization of the sample. The MIAplex is a handheld portable device that measures a signal corresponding to the second derivative of the magnetization around zero field (between -15 and 15 kA m(-1)). In this paper, the magnetic response of the size series is correlated, both in diluted and powder form, between the SQUID and MIAplex. The SQUID curves are measured at room temperature in two magnetic field ranges from -4000 to 4000 kA m(-1) (-5T to 5T) and from -15 to 15 kA m(-1). Nonlinear behavior at weak fields is highlighted and the magnetic curves for diluted solutions evolve from quasi-paramagnetic to superparamagnetic behavior when the size of the nanoparticles increases. For the 7-nm sample, the fit of the magnetization with the Langevin model weighted with log-normal distribution corresponds closely to the magnetic size. This confirms the accuracy of the model of non-interacting superparamagnetic particles with a magnetically frustrated surface layer of about 0.5 nm thickness. For the other samples (10-nm to 21-nm), the experimental weak-field magnetization curves are modeled by more than one population of magnetically responding species. This behavior is consistent with a chemically uniform but magnetically distinct structure composed of a core and a magnetically active nanoparticle canted shell. Accordingly the weak-field signature corresponds to the total assembly of the nanoparticles. The impact of size polydispersity is also discussed. 相似文献
