Cv. Bindhu et al., Studies of nonlinear absorption and aggregation in aqueous solutions of rhodamine 6G using a transient thermal lens technique, J PHYS D, 32(4), 1999, pp. 407-411
Dual-beam transient thermal lens studies were carried out in aqueous soluti
ons of rhodamine 6G using 532 nm pulses from a frequency-doubled Nd:YAG las
er. The analysis of the observed data showed that the thermal lens method c
an effectively be utilized to study the nonlinear absorption and aggregatio
n which are taking place in a dye medium.
