Abstract
For long incident pulses, one-photon absorption in the excited stare formed following a two-photon absorption can play a very significant role in some organic materials. We develop here a quantitative model to determine the c ontribution of excited state absorption in the interpretation of the two-ph oton absorption data for such materials. We present representative calculat ions of this effect for some selected systems. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B. V. All rights reserved.
