Abstract

ZnMnSe exhibits a strong nonlinear absorption related to Manganese ions. This absorption is easily bleached when the another narrow-band laser with high intensity illuminates the crystals. The first observation of the absorptive optical bistability is observed in a wider range of excitation power density and excitation wavelength. It is thought that the bistable effect is attributed to the bleaching of absorption concerning Mn energy bands combined with the positive-feedback provided by the light reflection at the perfect crystal surfaces.
