Linear and nonlinear absorption of titanium dioxide films produced by plasma ion-assisted electron beam evaporation: Modeling and experiments
Abstract
Titanium dioxide films were prepared by plasma ion-assisted electron beam evaporation. Linear optical properties were investigated in terms of spectrophotometry using the beta-distributed oscillator (ß_do) model as a parametrized dispersion law. The nonlinear two-photon absorption coefficient of titanium dioxide was determined by means of the laser-induced deflection technique at a wavelength of 800 nm. The obtained values of (2-5) × 10−11 cm/W were consistent with published experimental values for rutile as well as for simulations performed in the frames of the ß_do and Sheik-Bahae models.
