Mach-Zehnder interferometric technique has been used to calculate the nonlinear refractive index (n 2 ) of 2, 5-dimethylaniline (DMA) dissolved in methanol. The technique uses the ratio of the measured input powers to the corresponding output powers to estimate the nonlinear phase shift of DMA. Calculated value of the nonlinear refractive index of DMA was fund to be of the order of 10 −6 cm 2 /W. Keywords: Nonlinear refractive index; nonlinear phase shift; 2, 5-dimethylaniline; Mach-Zehnder interferometric technique. 1550004-1 M. M. Tasnim et al.

“…Ferrofluids can easily be manipulated by an external magnetic field, and thus they can be used for precise drug delivery and in hyperthermia applications (see, e.g., [5,6] and references therein). They also have large potential for applications in optical devices [7], such as tunable beam splitters [8], tunable gratings [9], interferometers [10], and optical logic devices [11]. They are also used in fiber optics including optical fiber modulators, optical filters, and fiber sensors, in which the ferrofluid is used as a fiber cladding or coating [12,13].…”

Effect of dimerization on the field-induced birefringence in ferrofluids

et al. 2013

The magnetic-field-induced birefringence in a ferrofluid composed of spherical cobalt nanoparticles has been studied both experimentally and theoretically. The considerable induced birefringence determined experimentally has been attributed to the formation of chains of nanoparticles. The birefringence has been measured as a function of the external magnetic field and the volume fraction (f) of nanoparticles. It is quadratic in f as opposed to the Faraday effect, which is linear in f. Experimental results agree well with the theoretical model based on a simple density functional approach. For dilute solutions the experimental results can be explained by assuming that only dimers of nanoparticles are formed while the concentration of longer chains is negligible.
