Abstract
Picosecond chirped-pulse technology is used to generate two spectrally separate, time-synchronized pulses for χ(3) measurements by nearly degenerate four-wave mixing. Near 1053 nm, nonresonant relative measurements of are carried out on three model substances, nitrobenzene, α-chloronaphthalene, and 4′-decyloxynaphthyl-1′-(4-decyloxybenzoate). Their χ(3) values are normalized to CS2.
