The second-order parametric lens effect shows a temporal limit as a saturable-absorber device for operation in the ultrafast time region. We present and discuss an extended theoretical model dealing with second-order cascaded processes in a nonstationary condition.

Abstract

The second-order parametric lens effect shows a temporal limit as a saturable-absorber device for operation in the ultrafast time region. We present and discuss an extended theoretical model dealing with second-order cascaded processes in a nonstationary condition. Experimentally we report the detection of the time-averaged lens effect in the hundred-of-femtoseconds range, discussing the limits that arise in this ultrafast optical region.
