Abstract
We have studied the nonlinear refractive properties of the organometalic fullerene-C60 derivatives fac- and mer- [bis (1,2-diphenylphosphino) ethane] (tricarbonyl)(η2-fullerene-C60) chromium and molybdenum using the Z-scan method. These compounds change from being self-defocusing to self-focusing as the input light intensity increases. The experimental results have been interpreted using rate-equation theory. Critical conditions for the occurrence of this kind of transition have been elucidated for the steady-state situation.
