This paper presents three-photon absorption (3PA) measurement results for nine direct-gap semiconductors, including full 3PA spectra for ZnSe, ZnS, and GaAs. These results, along with our theory of 3PA using an 8-band Kane model (4 bands…
We report on large three-photon absorption (3PA) in glutathione-capped ZnS semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs), determined by both Z-scan and transient transmission techniques with 120-fs laser pulses. The monodispersed, water-soluble ZnS NCs…
We report a study of high-order multi-photon absorption, nonlinear refraction, and their anisotropy in four notable mid-infrared \c{hi}(2) crystals: GaP, ZnSe, GaSe and ZGP using the Z- scan method and 2.35-{\mu}m femtosecond pulses with…
