Ultrafast reflection control based on photoinduced complex refractive index changes in guided mode thin films containing indium phthalocyanine
Ultrafast all-optical reflection control was achieved by complex refractive index changes upon photoexcitation of indium phthalocyanine in a guided mode geometry device, It gave a few microseconds response mostly characteristic to the lifetime of the excited triplet state.
