Abstract:
Nonlinear absorption of solutions of inorganic nano-, submicron, and micron particles of various chemical composition, i.e., metal (Pt, Al), semiconductor (ITHO), and dielectric (ATO), has been measured at excitation by the Nd-YAG laser radiation (at 1064 and 532 nm wavelengths) of nanosecond duration. The limiting properties of the materials have been compared. Inexpensive and efficient nonlinear materials with Al as a basis are proposed for broadband limiters of laser radiation power.
