The influence of intermolecular interactions on optical limiter design

Abstract

Reverse saturable absorption/thermal hybrid optical limiter materials can be used to make devices where the energy transmitted through the limiter is kept to approximately the MPE (Maximum Permissible Exposure according to the ANSI standard) over a range of input energies. However, to achieve this level of protection requires an optical system where there is an intermediate focus with an optical gain on the order of 106 to 107.
