Abstract
The degenerate and nondegenerate nonlinear Kerr coefficients n(2) of d isordered media composed of submicrometer dioxide titania particles em bedded in a dye solution were measured using an interferometric techni que. The influence of the scattering particles on the value of n(2) ar e discussed in the light of stimulated emission in these systems. The results obtained can be useful for applications in nonlinear ultrashor t pulse propagation in disordered media.
