  • Abstract
    The two photon absorption coefficient (β) and third order nonlinear optical susceptibility (χ<3>) of ZnSe:Ag crystals were investigated using the nonlinear transmission and DFWM methods. The experimental results show that the real and imaginary part of third order nonlinear optical susceptibility (χ<3> ) decrease with increase of Ag content
