computing the NLR index, NLA coefficient and kappa 3 in the NLCs doped ZnS nanoparticles

In this research, third order nonlinear susceptibility of ZnS nanoparticles NPs in nematic liquid crystals NLCs have been recorded and analyzed. ZnS NPs have been synthesized by the hydrothermal method. Afterwards, the nonlinear refractive NLR index, linear refraction index , nonlinear absorption NLA coefficient, linear absorption coefficient and third order nonlinear susceptibility, of pure NLCs and ZnS NPs in NLCs were measured using the z-scan technique by using a continues wave CW He: Ne laser at 632.8 nm wavelength. The measurements were performed for homeotropic initial alignments of NLCs molecules. Strong optical nonlinearity, self-defocusing and two photon absorption TPA effects are observed for pure NLCs and ZnS NPs in NLCs by homeotropic alignments. according to given results, the NLR index and the NLA coefficient of the 5CB NLCs doped by ZnS NPs five and three times of the NLR and the NLA coefficient of pure NLCs, respectively.
