We studied the nonlinear refraction properties of an organmetallic fulleren
e-C-60 derivative fac and mer-[bis(1,2-diphenylphosphino) ethane] (tricarbo
nyl)(eta(2)-fullerene-C-60) chromium by using Z-scan method. We also invest
igated the nonlinear refraction behavior of exited-state nonlinear optical
materials and the switching between self-defocusing and self-focusing cause
d by the refrangibility of high excited state based on rate-equation theory
. The transformation intensity was worked out,and the experiment was simula
ted numerically. The theoretical results agrees well with the experimental
data.
