Abstract

We report switch over from saturable absorption to reverse saturable absorption behavior in semiconductor doped glass (Schott-RG850) with increase in femtosecond laser excitation intensity. About ninefold increase in the normalized transmission was achieved experimentally. Two-photon absorption, saturation intensity and free carrier absorption are taken into account to analyze results obtained from Z-scan experiments. Numerical fitting to the experimental data indicates that consideration of two-photon absorption in the sample is important despite having strong linear absorption at excitation wavelength to explain large decrease in transmission at high intensity. Further, to show the applicability of such interesting nonlinear transmission behavior we have envisaged all-optical OR, AND, and XOR logic gates in parallel.
