Transient coherent and incoherent specular inverse Faraday effect: measurement of surface cubic optical nonlinearities
We report the first observation, to our knowledge, of the nonresonant time-resolved specular inverse Faraday effect (SIFE) and its coherent and incoherent contributions. We have developed it as a polarization-sensitive method for spectroscopy of solids illustrated by what we believe to be the first direct measurements of the free-electron spin-relaxation time in bulk GaAs at room temperature and of several nonresonant cubic optical nonlinearities in various crystals.

Abstract

We report the first observation, to our knowledge, of the nonresonant time-resolved specular inverse Faraday effect (SIFE) and its coherent and incoherent contributions. We have developed it as a polarization-sensitive method for spectroscopy of solids illustrated by what we believe to be the first direct measurements of the free-electron spin-relaxation time in bulk GaAs at room temperature and of several nonresonant cubic optical nonlinearities in various crystals.
