Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Optical Nonlinearity of Au and Ag Nanoparticle Prepared by the γ-Radiation MethodEsmaeil Shahriari, W. M.M. Yunus, Kazem Naghavi, Elias SaionProblem statement: The third order nonlinear optical properties of metal nanoparticles have been of interest in physical chemistry, medical diagnostics and optical devices. Gold colloidal nanoparticles are responsible for the brilliant reds seen in stained glass windows and silver particles are typically yellow. The purpose of the study was to determine the nonlinear refraction and absorption coefficient of the Au … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,541 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Niobium Oxide Incorporation on Optical Properties of Sodium Bismuth Borate GlassesHossam M. Gomaa, Saeid M. Elkatlawy, Ahmed H. El-DosokeyGlasses with the chemical compositions 60% B2O3-20% Na2O-(20-x) % Bi2O3-x% Nb2O5 (where, x = 0, 5, 10 and 15 mol. %), were prepared by fast quenching of their melts. Characteristics of the obtained solids were checked by XRD, FTIR and optical absorption spectroscopy. XRD data confirmed the amorphous nature of the glass samples. FTIR results revealed no changes in the … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 6 Jul 2019 · 7,228 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSingle Beam Z-Scan Measurements of Nonlinear Refraction and Nonlinear Absorption Coefficients in Silver Nano-FluidEsmaeil Shahriari, W. Mahmood Mat YunusProblem statement: The nonlinear refractive index and nonlinear absorption are two important optical phenomena which are extensively used in optical switching, optical limiting and labeling. Approach: In the present research we had measured nonlinearity of Ag nano-fluid prepared using γ-irradiation method. The measurement was carried out using a single beam z-scan technique. Under a CW laser beam excitation operated at … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,635 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgramming of the Generalized Nonlinear Paraxial Equation for the Formation of Solitons with MathematicaFrederick Osman, Robert BeechThis study presents the nonlinearity and dispersion effects involved in the propagation of optical solitons which can be understood by using a numerical routine to solve the Generalized Nonlinear Paraxial equation. A sequence of code has been developed in Mathematica, to explore in depth several features of the optical soliton’s formation and propagation. These numerical routines were implemented through the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 6,784 accessesView PDF Cite
