Abstract
This paper will discuss in general the so-called third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility X(3). Values for this quantity are often quoted that vary wildly in magnitude depending on the material and source used, in particular the source pulsewidth. It would be “nice” if X(3) were constant rather than depending on the illumination parameters
