Nonlinear transmission of liquid water at the librational band

Caption

Fig. 2: Nonlinear transmission of liquid water (12 µm thick film held between two transparent windows) at the librational (L2) band (vibration indicated by the circular arrow). (a) L2 absorption of water (black line) and incident (magenta line) and transmitted (green line) spectra of the 11.4 µm pulses (energy: 25 µJ). (b) Transmission of the water sample as a function of incident pulse energy, showing a nonlinear transmission increase.
