摘要
Reflection spectroscopy is used to obtain the refractive index of Zn1-xMgxSe layers for the series of alloy composition x, at energies below the energy gap of these semiconductors. It is shown that the linear refractive indices decrease with Mg content. The two-photon absorption coefficient (beta) was obtained from the nonlinear transmission. A relatively strong nonlinear absorption, which increases with an increase of Mg composition, is observed. Maximal value of the TPA coefficient is obtained for the Mg content about 40%. The technological figure of merit parameter Im(chi ([3]))/alpha shows evident maximum for Mg content at 7%. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
