Abstract

Two-photon-absorption coefficients are measured for fused silica, LiF, and the alkali earth halides BaF₂, SrF₂, CaF₂, and MgF₂, using 0.7-psec, 248-nm pulses with intensities in the range (0.5–30) × 10¹⁰ W/cm². The consequences of these measurements in the design of high-brightness excimer lasers are discussed.
