Abstract
Previous studies [1,2] have shown that very strong and fast optical nonlinearities occur near the fundamental absorption edge of the wide-gap II-VI semiconductors at room temperature. They are related to many-body effects (screening, gap-shrinkage, bandfilling) in the carrier-system excited and make these materials good candidates for optical signal processing applications in the visible spectral range.
