UV-induced kinetics of second harmonic generation in CdI2–Cu layered nanocrystals

Cadmium clusters in CdI2layered crystals: the influence on the optical properties

“…CdI 2 crystals have been also proposed as a recording media for ultraviolet (UV) light etc [1]. In the last few years, several interesting works have been devoted to the studies of various nanostructures which are formed in doped CdI 2 crystals under irradiation [3,4], in ultrathin layers of cadmium iodide [5][6][7][8][9], or in heterostructures in the case of the evaporation of metal film on the CdI 2 surface [10,11]. It was shown that these systems exhibit unique properties which do not occur in the pure crystals.…”

Influence of gold nanoparticles on optically stimulated effects in TeO2–ZnO and GeO2–PbO amorphous thin films

“…So we have a competition between the soformed trapping levels and their decay which is principally for the observed photoinduced kinetics. It is clear that the shape for the decay is almost independent on the achieved second order susceptibility, which may indicate substantial contribution of the photoinduced electron-phonon interactions [25]. During illumination the temperature increase does not exceed 4-6 K following the laser pyrometer control.…”
