چکیده
In this paper, we use improved Z-scan and I-scan methods to analyze the refractive optical nonlinearities of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples, which occur with continuous wave and femtosecond pulsed lasers and our proposed solutions to further improve both the methods and the nonlinear optical properties of DNA.

متن کاملCharacterization of dynamic optical nonlinearities with pulse trains
We report a simple extension of the Z-scan technique where pulse trains characteristic of a Q-switched and mode-locked Nd:YAG laser are employed to investigate the dynamics of third-order optical nonlinearities. The method allows discriminating between fast and accumulative nonlinearities, and was applied to the investigation of liquid samples, namely chloroform, benzene, and a solution of Disp...
