Abstract

The dependence of the negative nonlinear absorption effect on the modulation degree and frequency was investigated in an erbium chloride solution using a 807.6 nm laser diode. The reverse-phased wave forms were obtained in the transmitted wave form for sample lengths greater than 6 cm. Though the reverse-phased wave form was observed symmetrically at modulation frequency of 0.1 MHz, they were asymmetrical at higher than 0.25 MHz. The effect has a characteristic which is almost independent of the state of erbium ions because it is formed by optical transitions of the inner shell of the erbium atom.
