摘要
Optical power limiting is the increase of optical absorption with light intensity. Pure crystalline potash alum was grown and optical absorption in dependences of the light intensity and thickness of the crystal was studied using laser light. The transmission of the crystals was found to increase with increasing light intensity. However, at higher light intensity, an increase of optical absorption with intensity was observed. The power limiting characteristics, e.g. linear transmission/dynamic range and saturation point, were found to be varied with thickness of the crystal. The findings resulting from this investigation might have potential applications in optical limiting. (C) 2014 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
