Abstract Photo-induced enhancement processes of the third-order optical nonlinearity were observed in azobenzene solution under a 3Ops pulse pumping at 532 nm. Weinvestigated the time evolotion of the enhancement and found that it was mainly due to thc population of the first excited stale. By theoretical simulation of the enhancement processes, the values of the hyperpolarizabilities of the sample-molecules at ground state and at excited state, $\gamma$g and $\gamma$s1 were determined to be 1.11×10-33 esu and 7.40×10-33, respectively.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
