A review of some properties of chalcogenide glasses and the current status of their
applications is given. Techniques to characterize the linear and non-linear properties of …

The earliest experimental data on an oxygen-free glass have been published by Schulz-
Sellack in 1870 [1]. Later on, in 1902, Wood [2], as well as Meier in 1910 [3], carried out the …

" Silver-Halide Recording Materials" gives a detailed analysis of the theory, the
characteristics, the manufacturing, and the processing methods of silver-halide materials …

We have extended the conventional Z-scan theory by employing an aberration-free
approximation of a Gaussian beam through a nonlinear medium and derived a simple …

Inhomogeneities in thin films have a large influence on the optical transmission spectrum. If
not corrected for, this may lead to too large calculated values of the absorption coefficient or …

Ultrafast pulsed laser deposition was used to successfully deposit atomically smooth 5-μm-
thick As_2S_3 films. The as-deposited films were photosensitive at wavelengths close to the …

We have shown that high-repetition rate short-pulse laser deposition can be used to
successfully fabricate low loss waveguide films in As2S3 chalcogenide glasses. The …

The measurement of the nonresonant third-order nonlinearity of three chalcogenide glasses
is reported. Using the Z-scan technique, both the refractive and the absorptive parts of the …

We report data on the dispersion of the index of refraction of silver-doped As33S67 thin films
in the visible and near-infrared regions. The measured data is analysed on the basis of a …
