Description

The nonlinear optical (NLO) and optical limiting properties of a graphene oxide hybrid material coordinated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles (GO–Fe3O4) were studied by using the Z-scan technique at 532 nm in the nanosecond and picosecond regimes. Results show that GO–Fe3O4 exhibits enhanced NLO and optical limiting properties in comparison with the pristine GO in the nanosecond regime. Compared with fullerene (C60) in toluene at different concentrations, GO–Fe3O4 exhibits a weaker optical limiting effect than C60 at high concentration, but shows a stronger optical limiting effect than C60 at low concentration in the high input fluence region
