Abstract

The third-order optical nonlinearities of semiconductor CdS are investigated using 4f nonlinear image technique with phase object at 745 nm. The measurement method is based on the 4f coherent optical processor system in Fourier optics. The nonlinear parameters of sample can be verified by numerical fitting the nonlinear image at the output plane of 4f system which obtained by a CCD camera. Using one-single-shot, the two-photon absorption coefficient β and nonlinear refraction index n2 of the CdS which arranged at the Fourier plane are determined simultaneously. The experimental results shows CdS has reverse saturable absorption and self-defocusing effect at 745 nm, indicating this material is a good candidate for future photonics applications.
