Two-beam nonlinearity in indium tin oxide in the continuous wave limit

March 15, 2023
Author(s)
Jared Wahlstrand, Chad Cruz
Indium tin oxide (ITO) is an example of a material with a greatly enhanced optical nonlinearity for wavelengths at which the dielectric permittivity is near zero. Its enormous nonlinearity may enable compact photonic devices. All-optical devices involve

Coherent contributions to population dynamics in a semiconductor microcavity

March 29, 2022
Author(s)
Jagannath Paul, Hendrik Rose, Ethan Swagel, Torsten Meier, Jared Wahlstrand, Alan Bristow
Multidimensional coherent spectroscopy (MDCS) is used to separate coherent and incoherent many-body contributions to the population-time dynamics in a GaAs-based semiconductor microcavity encapsulating a single InGaAs quantum well. In a three-pulse four

Analysis of complex multidimensional optical spectra by linear prediction

October 27, 2021
Author(s)
Ethan Swagel, Jagannath Paul, Alan Bristow, Jared Wahlstrand
We apply Linear Prediction from Singular Value Decomposition (LPSVD) to the analysis of two-dimensional complex optical spectra. LPSVD is a non-iterative procedure that fits time-domain complex data to the sum of damped sinusoids, or Lorentzian peaks in

Two-beam coupling by a hot electron nonlinearity

January 15, 2021
Author(s)
Jagannath Paul, Mario Miscuglio, Yaliang Gui, Volker Sorger, Jared Wahlstrand
Transparent conductive oxides such as indium tin oxide (ITO) have attracted much recent interest for their enhanced optical nonlinearity near the epsilon near zero wavelength. The nonlinearity of these materials is caused by laser heating of electrons

Nonlinearity and ionization in Xe: Experiment-based calibration of a numerical model

October 12, 2020
Author(s)
Joseph Tolliver, Sina Zahedpour, Jared Wahlstrand, H M. Milchberg, Miroslav Kolesik
A model for the optical response of Xenon, including the nonlinear polarization and ionization rate, is calibrated with the help of space-and-time resolved measurements. Utilizing an idea of universal functional form for the response as a function of the

Polarization Dependence of Charge Conduction in Conjugated Polymer Films Investigated with Time- Resolved Terahertz Spectroscopy

March 6, 2020
Author(s)
Timothy J. Magnanelli, Sebastian Engmann, Jared K. Wahlstrand, John C. Stephenson, Lee J. Richter, Edwin J. Heilweil
We interrogate polarization anisotropy associated with charge conduction in films of the block co polymer PCDTPT, consisting of alternating cyclopenta dithiophene (donor) and thiadiazolo pyridine (acceptor) units with respect to sample morphology. Film

Controlling femtosecond filament propagation using externally driven gas motion

January 2, 2019
Author(s)
Jared K. Wahlstrand, Nihal Jhajj, H M. Milchberg
The thermal density depression (or “density hole”) produced by a high repetition rate femtosecond filament in air acts as a negative lens, altering the propagation of the filament. We discuss the effects of externally driven gas motion on these density

Bound electron nonlinearity beyond the ionization threshold

May 2, 2018
Author(s)
Jared K. Wahlstrand, Sina Zahedpour, Anand Bahl, Miroslav Kolesik, H M. Milchberg
Although high field laser-induced ionization is a fundamental process at the root of many applications, there have been no absolute measurements of its transient rate. Such information is crucial, for example, for understanding the propagation of high

Bound Electron Nonlinearity Beyond the Ionization Threshold

September 18, 2017
Author(s)
Jared K. Wahlstrand, Sina Zahedpour, H M. Milchberg
Using supercontinuum spectral interferometry, we measure the ionization induced optical phase shift in three noble gases and nitrogen and oxygen. Results largely support the standard model of filamentation.
