摘要
Using high-intensity femtosecond pulses at lambda=264 nm, we have measured the two-photon absorption (TPA) coefficient in three fused silica samples Suprasil, Herasil, Infrasil (Heraeus) and in 3.5 mol % Ge-doped fused silica. While in fused silica samples the TPA coefficient value is about 2x10(-11) cm/W, in germanosilicate glass it equals (42+/-3)x10(-11) cm/W. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
