Popis: Sequential theoretical analysis of the excited-state absorption of organic dyes is carried out. It is established that the transmission dependence on laser radiation intensity of optical elements activated by organic dyes is described by the scaling law. It contains two parameters (the critical intensity and the contrast parameter) which are figures of merit of the excited state absorption of dye. Requirements to experimental conditions needed for correctly determination of figures of merit of the excited-state absorption efficiency of organic dyes are formulated. It is shown that there is a good agreement between experimental data of the sample transmission dependence on laser radiation intensity with the result of its calculation based on the scaling law. Figures of merit for several organic dyes are obtained.
