Abstract
In recent years, the interest in suspensions of microparticles in organic liquids has increased due to the possibility of using them as an optical material for applications such as phase conjugation and optical limiting. Most of the reported measurements focused on suspensions of nonabsorbing microparticles in liquids. Here we report a detailed characterization of the optical nonlinearities in a suspension of carbon black particles in a mixture of water and ethylene glycol using nanosecond and picosecond laser pulses at 0.532 and 1.064 μm.
