Abstract

Investigation results of the nonlinear interaction of short laser pulses with chalcogenide glasses are briefly described. The most characteristic peculiarities of the investigated nonlinear light transmission are discussed. A physical model, taking into account the light interaction with nonequilibrium phonons, is considered for the explanation of the experimental results. The results of the numerical calculations of the phenomenological equations are compared with the experimental data.
