Abstract

This paper reports the third-order nonlinear optical features of acid blue 129 dye in aqueous solutions, by Z-scan method working at 635 nm wavelength. The functional groups present in acid blue 129 dye were observed by FT-IR spectra. Acid blue 129 dye exhibits self-defocusing and reverse saturable absorption (RSA) behaviors. The absorption cross section of ground and excited states was calculated, confirming the presence of RSA. Furthermore, the value of nonlinear refractive index obtained from Sheik-Bahae design was compared with thermal lens model. The concentric diffraction ring pattern observed in the transmitted beam profile of the sample was recorded.
