Saturable transmission in mercury cadmium telluride Academic Article

abstract

• We have observed saturable absorption effects in mercury cadmium telluride. The transmission of etched Hg0.39Cd0.61Te saturates by more than a factor of 10 for high pulse energies at the wavelength =1.06 m. The lifetime of this short-lived saturation is measured to be less than 50 psec.
