This article offers an extensive survey of results obtained using hybrid photonic-crystal fibers
(PCFs) which constitute one of the most active research fields in contemporary fiber optics …

Various techniques to characterize the nonlinear (NL) optical response of centro-symmetric
materials are presented and evaluated with emphasis on the relationship between the …

Carbon disulfide is the most popular material for applications of nonlinear optical (NLO)
liquids, and is frequently used as a reference standard for NLO measurements. Although it …

We demonstrate the effectiveness of a simple method for using Z-scan technique with high
repetition rate lasers managing cumulative thermal effects. Following Falconieri [J. Opt. A, 1 …

The nonlinear refractive index (γ) of CS 2 was measured using the Z-scan technique and
laser radiation of various (femto-, pico-, and nano-second) pulse durations. We observed the …

The optical, structural, and nonlinear optical properties of silver nanoparticles prepared by
laser ablation in various liquids were investigated at 397.5, 532, and 795 nm. The TEM and …

Herewith, we describe how intensity and phase of the ultrashort pulse retrieved with second-
harmonic frequency-resolved optical gating (SHG FROG) can be utilized for measurement of …

The excitation of near-infrared (2+ 1) D solitons in liquid carbon disulfide is demonstrated
due to the simultaneous contribution of the third-and fifth-order susceptibilities. Solitons …

It has long been known that nonlinear refraction in solvents can depend on pulse width, and
this along with experimental uncertainties has led to orders-of-magnitude disagreements in …

A photonic crystal fibre with hollow core filled with toluene is considered as a new system for
coherent supercontinuum generation. The dispersion characteristics are studied for various …
