  • Abstract
    Second, third, and fifth harmonics to wavelengths of UV and VUV are generated on a thin film of ZnO nanocrystal using a ∼ 15-femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser oscillator. The third-harmonic conversion efficiency is one of the highest among all other dielectric materials. A 3rd-order interferometric autocorrelation is demonstrated for routine diagnostic of the femtosecond beam and the 5th-order autocorrelation is now possible.
