Similar Role of Transient Kerr Effect and Two-Photon Absorption in a Nonlinear Photonic Crystal Nanocavity

The impacts of transient Kerr effect (TKE) on the characteristics of a nonlinear photonic crystal (PC) nanocavity are theoretically and numerically investigated. It is found that the features of TKE are very similar to those of two-photon absorption (TPA), but the mechanisms for them are essentially...
