Abstract
We study the effect of two-photon absorption and Kerr nonlinearity on the optical properties of a one-dimensional photonic crystal made with amorphous silicon and SiO2. A stop band appearing near 1.5 μm is monitored with a weak probe beam and modulated by changes in the refractive index caused by a pump pulse at 1.71 μm with 18 GW/cm2 peak intensity. Nonlinear optical characterization of the sample using Z-scan points out to two-photon absorption as the main contributor to free carrier excitation in silicon at that power level. Modulation in the transmittance near the band edge is found to be dominated by the optical Kerr effect within the pulse overlap (∼400 fs) whereas free carrier index changes are observed for 12 ps.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
