Abstract

Non-linear polarization rotation of femtosecond laser radiation with intensity of the order of 10¹³ W/cm² in BaF₂ crystal under plasma formation conditions was investigated. Abnormal behavior of cross-polarized wave generation efficiency on laser pulse energy may be explained by influence on the process of polarization anisotropy of fifth order non-linearity.
