Nonlinear photonics of fullerene solutions
Newly observed enhanced linear optical features of fullerene solutions (Raman scattering and one-photon luminescence) are due to clusterization of fullerene molecules themselves as well as their composites with solvent molecules. A direct connection between the enhanced linear effects and nonlinear behavior of the solutions is discussed and empirical and computational tests of the solutions nonlinear optics efficacy are suggested.
