Abstract

In this paper, we present some nonlinear optical properties of A₂B₆ mixed crystals grown by the modified high-pressure Bridgman method. We measured the nonlinear refractive index (n₂), third order nonlinear optical susceptibility (χ^<;3>) and nonlinear absorption coefficient of these semiconductors using the standard backward degenerate four wave mixing (DFWM) and Z-scan techniques.
