Abstract:
Measurement of thermal lensing signal as a function of laser power made in Rhodamine B solutions in methanol give clear evidence of two photon absorption process within certain concentration ranges when 488 nm Ar+ laser beam is used as the pump source. Only one photon process is found to occur when 514 nm and 476 nm beams are used as the pump.

Abstract:
Optical emission studies of C2 molecules in plasma obtained by Nd:YAG
laser ablation of graphite in a helium atmosphere are reported for irradiances in the
range (1–9:2/ x 1010 W cm−2. The characteristics of the spectral emission intensity
from the C2 (Swan band) species have been investigated as functions of the
distance from the target, ambient pressure and laser irradiance. Estimates of
vibrational temperatures of C2 species under various irradiance conditions are
made. Results of measurements performed under different ambient helium gas
pressures are also discussed.
