Single Experimental Setup for High Sensitive Absorption Coefficient and Optical Nonlinearities Measurements

Accurate knowledge of absorption coefficient of a sample is a prerequisite for measuring the third order optical nonlinearity of materials, which can be a serious limitation for unknown samples. We introduce a method, which measures both the absorption coefficient and the third order optical nonlinearity of materials with high sensitivity in a single experimental arrangement. We use a dual-beam pump-probe experiment and conventional single-beam z-scan under different conditions to achieve this goal. We also demonstrate a counterintuitive coupling of the non-interacting probe-beam with the pump-beam in pump-probe z-scan experiment.

High Sensitive Measurement of Absorption Coefficient and Optical Nonlinearities with a Single Experimental Setup

Conditions for Soliton-Like Wave Propagation in Pockels and Photorefractive Media

We study the conditions for soliton-like wave propagation in the Photorefractive (PR) and electro-optic (i.e., Pockels) material, by using Nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation. The complete NLS equation is solved analytically and numerically by transforming it into the phase space. Our results clearly show the existence of both the dark and bright solitary solutions for the PR medium. Interestingly, however, we find only one bright solitary solution in the Pockels case and there is no evidence of any dark solitary solution.

Coherent Control of Multiphoton Transitions with Femtosecond pulse shaping

We explore the effects of ultrafast shaped pulses for two-level systems that do not have a single photon resonance by developing a multiphoton density-matrix approach. We take advantage of the fact that the dynamics of the intermediate virtual states are absent within our laser pulse timescales. Under these conditions, the multiphoton results are similar to the single photon and that it is possible to extend the single photon coherent control ideas to develop multiphoton coherent control.
