Unveiling nonlinear regimes of light amplification in fused silica with femtosecond imaging spectroscopy
We observe and characterize two nonlinear light-amplification regimes with unique spectral properties and fluence dependencies in laser-excited fused silica using ultrafast pump-probe imaging spectroscopy. The two underlying mechanisms are switchable within 150 fs via the time delay between an inten...
