    Method for computing the nonlinear refractive index via Keldysh theory
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2008) Brée, Carsten; Demircan, Ayhan; Steinmeyer, Günter
    By making use of the multiphoton limit of Keldysh theory, we show that for the case of two-photon absorption a Kramers-Kronig expansion can be used to calculate the nonlinear refractive index for different wavelenghts. We apply this method to various inert gases and compare the obtained numerical values to different experimental and theoretical results for the dispersion of the Kerr nonlinearity.
