Abstract
Accumulated thermal effect (ATE), which can be an artifact in femtosecond closed-aperture Z-scan measurements, was investigated by varying the repetition rate of the incident pulse for a dye solution in CHCl3. It was found that the measurement is affected by two-photon-absorption-induced ATE, even at a low repetition rate of 1 kHz. The relaxation time of the ATE was found to be tens of milliseconds by time-resolved thermal-lens experiments and simulations, which is consistent with the observed repetition-rate dependence of the Z-scan measurements. The simulations for various commonly used solvents also exhibited that the ATE can be prominent in hydrocarbon and halogenated hydrocarbon solvents and inconspicuous in alcohols and water.
