Abstract
Third-order nonlinear optical properties of Ge10AsxTe90x chalcogenide glasses were investigated utilizing the Z-scan method at the mid-infrared wavelengths of 2.5 and 3.0 μm. The compositional dependence of the third-order nonlinearity was analyzed, and their correlation with the refractive index and the optical bandgap was discussed. The results show that nonlinear refractive index n2 can be significantly enhanced by the addition of tellurium, and larger n2 values are observed at 3.0 μm rather than 2.5 μm due to the two-photon resonance effect, and the maximum of n2 is 4.96 x 10-13 cm2/W at the composition of Ge10As20Te70. In addition, the experimental results are in good agreement with the semi-empirical Miller's rule whilst the variation of dispersive n2 values are in relatively good coincidence with the theoretical model by Sheik-Bahae et. al. for direct bandgap semiconductors.
