Abstract:We investigate ultrafast nonlinear optical properties of periodic structures based on ZnSe/ZnS using interband and two-photon excitation of ZnSe sublattice by ultrashort laser pulses. A considerable shift of reflection spectrum and large relative reflection changes were observed in a wide spectral range corresponding to the transparency region of ZnSe far from the intrinsic absorption onset. Large relative reflection changes were observed in a wide spectral range. The nonlinear refraction is supposed to be controlled by population induced absorption changes in ZnSe. The relaxation time is controlled by a transition from non-equilibrium to quasi-equilibrium distribution of electrons and holes.
