Title
Three-Photon Absorption Spectra Of Zinc Blende Semiconductors: Theory And Experiment
Abstract
We calculate the spectrum of three-photon absorption (3PA) in zinc blende semiconductors using Kane's four-band model. We apply this to ZnSe and measure the 3PA spectrum using femtosecond pulses, obtaining excellent agreement. The spectrum shows the apparent onset of 3PA from the split-off band and also shows quantum interference between the several possible evolution pathways when exciting carriers from valence to conduction band. © 2008 Optical Society of America.
