<p>As a novel layered noble metal dichalcogenide material, palladium diselenide (PdSe<sub>2</sub>) has attracted wide interest due to its excellent optical and electronic properties. In this work, a strong third-order nonlinear optical response of 2D PdSe<sub>2</sub> films is reported. We conduct both open-aperture (OA) and closed-aperture (CA) Z-scan measurements with a femtosecond pulsed laser at 800 nm to investigate the nonlinear absorption and nonlinear refraction, respectively. In the OA experiment, we observe optical limiting behaviour originating from large two photo absorption (TPA) in the PdSe<sub>2</sub> film of <i>β =</i> 3.26 ×10<sup>-8</sup> m/W. In the CA experiment, we measure a peak-valley response corresponding to a large and negative Kerr nonlinearity of <i>n</i><sub>2</sub> = -1.33×10<sup>-15</sup> m<sup>2</sup>/W – two orders of magnitude larger than bulk silicon. In addition, the variation of <i>n</i><sub>2</sub> as a function of laser intensity is also characterized, with <i>n</i><sub>2</sub> decreasing in magnitude when increasing incident laser intensity, becoming saturated at <i>n</i><sub>2</sub> = -9.96×10<sup>-16</sup> m<sup>2</sup>/W at high intensities. Our results show that the extraordinary third-order nonlinear optical properties of PdSe<sub>2</sub> have strong potential for high-performance nonlinear photonic devices.</p>

In the CA experiment, we measure a peak-valley response corresponding to a large and negative Kerr nonlinearity of n2 = -1.33×10− 15 m2/W – two orders of magnitude larger than bulk silicon. In addition, the variation of n2 as a function of laser intensity is also characterized, with n2 decreasing in magnitude when increasing incident laser intensity, becoming saturated at n2 = -9.96×10− 16 m2/W at high intensities.

AbstractOver the past decade, the plasmonics of graphene and black phosphorus (BP) were widely recognized as promising media for establishing linear and nonlinear light-matter interactions. Compared to the conventional metals, they support significant light-matter interaction of high efficiency and show undispersed optical properties. Furthermore, in contrast to the conventional metals, the plasmonic properties of graphene and BP structure can be tuned by electrical and chemical doping. In this review, a deep attention was paid toward the second- and third-order nonlinear plasmonic modes of graphene and BP. We present a theoretical framework for calculating the lifetime for surface plasmons modes of graphene and BP assisted by the coupled mode theory. The effect of the Fermi energy on the second-order and third-order nonlinear response is studied in detail. We survey the recent advances in nonlinear optics and the applications of graphene and BP-based tunable plasmonic devices such as light modulation devices, switches, biosensors, and other nonlinear photonic devices. Finally, we highlight a few representative current applications of graphene and BP to photonic and optoelectronic devices.
