 Abstract— The spectral properties and Z- scan technique were used to study the nonlinear absorption coefficient (β) and nonlinear refractive coefficient (n2) of α- Chlorophyll dye solutions. A (100 mW) Neodymium- doped Yttrium Garnet (Nd: YAG) continuous laser (CW) with second harmonic generate at wavelength (532 mW) was used to evaluate open and closed z-scan setup. It is shown that the n2, β, and χ(3) is of the order of 10-12, 10-2 and 10-10 respectively.
