Abstract
A Gaussian-wave theory is developed for the classical and quantum analysis of the z-scan method that is often used to measure third-order nonlinearities. The theory allows us to compute the transmittance in the z scan and the associated regimes of amplitude squeezing. The classical limits of our theory are in perfect agreement with the previous theoretical results. We show that amplitude squeezing of
