Abstract

We have developed a method which yields the real and the imaginary parts of third-order susceptibility of material media. We have applied this method to determine the nonlinear refractive index (n₂) of new synthesized organic materials in the picosecond regime (30 ps pulse duration at 1064 nm wavelength). The results obtained show the efficiency of this technique for measuring low values of the nonlinear refraction coefficient n₂ in diluted materials.
