A NONLINEAR OPTICAL DIAGNOSTICS OF NANO-LIQUIDES

Abstract

Nonlinear lens technique is widely used to study nonlinear media and optical diagnostics of materials. In the dispersed environment there is a specific mechanism of optical nonlinearity based on the redistribution of the dispersed particle concentration in the light gradient field. In this paper a theoretical analysis of the light-induced mass transfer in the dispersed liquid medium in the Gaussian beam field was carried out.
