We study theoretically the nonlinear optical response of a mono-layer of three-level quantum emitters with a doublet in the excited state. It is shown that the layer’s response exhibits multistability. In a certain frequency range, the monolayer operates as a perfect bistable mirror.

AbstractThe nonlinear optical properties of two graphene derivatives, graphene oxide and graphene fluoride, are investigated by means of the Z-scan technique employing 35 ps and 4 ns, visible (532 nm) laser excitation. Both derivatives were found to exhibit significant third-order nonlinear optical response at both excitation regimes, with the nonlinear absorption being relatively stronger and concealing the presence of nonlinear refraction under ns excitation, while ps excitation reveals the presence of both nonlinear absorption and refraction. Both nonlinear properties are of great interest for several photonics, opto-fluidics, opto-electronics and nanotechnology applications.

Nonlinear optical response and reverse saturable absorption behavior of various rare earth phthalocyanines such as Nd , Eu , Sm and La in dimethyl formamide (DMF) solution were studied under high power Nd:YAG laser excitation. Excited state absorption cross-sections and two-photon absorption cross-sections of these systems are measured from the limiting characteristics. The SmHPc 2 system yields maximum value for excited state absorption cross-section and its potential application in DMF as a suitable optical limiter is also discussed.

Gallium sulfide (GaS) is a layered metal monochalcogenide semiconductor that has recently garnered considerable attention in various fields. In this study, we investigated the nonlinear absorption characteristics of multilayer β-GaS thin films on sapphire substrate by using femtosecond open-aperture Z-scan method. The β-GaS films exhibit saturable absorption behavior at 532 nm while nonlinear absorption appears under 650 nm excitation. The nonlinear absorption coefficient of β-GaS was determined to be −1.8 × 10–8 m/W and 4.9 × 10–8 m/W at 532 and 650 nm, respectively. The carrier dynamics of β-GaS films was studied via femtosecond transient absorption (TA) measurements. The TA results demonstrated that β-GaS films have broad photo-induced absorption in the visible regime and sub-nanosecond lifetime. Our results indicate that gallium sulfide has large nonlinear optical response and long carrier lifetime, which could be applied in future photonic devices.
