Popis: The linear absorption spectra of GaP, TiO 2 , ZnSe, and ZnS are measured in their transparency range using a two-color, excite-probe Z -scan. ZnS has the lowest absorption coefficient (∼10 −5 cm −1 ) in the wavelength range 840–900 nm, making it an excellent material for use as a luminescence extracting lens in semiconductor laser cooling experiments. Direct observation of two-photon absorption in ZnSe using only low power, continuous laser beams is also reported.
