Abstract:
The relaxation times τ of the bleached states of polymethine dyes absorbing light in the 750 – 850-nm are determined by the direct pump – probe method. The effect of the dye structure and the solvent type on the relaxation time is discussed. The role of different intra- and intermolecular interactions in the relaxation of excited electronic states of the dyes is analysed. Polymethine dyes are found (with τ = 11 – 75 ps) that are promising for passive mode locking in Cr3+:LiCaAlF6, Cr3+:KZnF3, and Cr3+:LiSrAlF6 crystal lasers.
