Resonant nonlinear optical absorption of silver nanoparticles was studied experimentally via open aperture Z-scan using 130 fs, 400 nm laser pulses. Experimental results show that, at low laser intensity, silver nanoparticles can exhibit saturated absorption. While at high laser intensity, it shows reverse saturated absorption. The saturable absorption is explained in terms of ground state plasmon bleaching, while the reverse saturable absorption is believed to be from two-photon absorption. Saturable optical intensity and two-photon absorption coefficient were obtained to be 1.3×1010 W/m2 and 3.3×10−10 m/W, respectively. The energy relaxation process of Ag nanoparticles after laser excitation was studied via pump-probe technique at 400 nm. Experimental results demonstrated that energy relaxation included electron-phonon coupling process with time constant τ1=(713±50) fs, and phonon-phonon coupling process with time constant τ2=(25.2±3) ps, respectively.

Doppler-free, two-photon spectroscopy has been used to investigate the transitions n2S ← 52S and n2D ← 52S of atomic rubidium, from n = 9 to 116 and n = 7 to 124, respectively, only 7.3 cm−1 from the ionization limit. Wavelengths of these transitions have been measured to an accuracy of 1 part in 107, and series formulae computed for term values and quantum defects. Hyperfine structure splittings in the 92S to 132S levels have also been measured.
