High-order (N = 4–6) multiphoton absorption and mid-infrared Kerr nonlinearity in GaP, ZnSe, GaSe, and ZGP crystals
We report a study of high-order multiphoton absorption, nonlinear refraction, and their anisotropy in four notable mid-infrared χ(2) crystals: GaP, ZnSe, GaSe, and ZGP using femtosecond pulses at 2.35 μm with peak intensity in excess of 200 GW/cm2. We found that the nonlinear absorption obeys a pert...
