Wavelength dependence of the ultrafast third-order nonlinearity of Silicon

Abstract

We measure the wavelength dependence of the nonlinear index n2 and two-photon absorption coefficients of bulk silicon below the band edge. In contrast to direct-bandgap semiconductors, silicon shows a positive n2 throughout the band gap.
