• Scientists Develop New Analysis Method of Non-Linear Optical Properties

  …eak nonlinear signals caused by an ultra-short laser beam passing through a sample. The approach is based on analysis and processing of registered axial digital holograms, i.e. diffraction patterns of a femtosecond probing pulse, distributed over a non-linear area at an angle to a pumping beam that excites optical non-linear effects. The method is based on a widely u…
