T
he third order non-linear optical properties of Buckminster fullerene (C
60
) molecule has been studied using a Nd:YAG laser, in
the visible and in the infrared region .The solvent using toluene was specifically used because of low threshold intensity for
an optical limiter application. Closed aperture Z-scan technique was adopted to characterize the material due to its simplicity and
high sensitivity in measuring the third-order optical nonlinearity. This allows computing the contributions of nonlinear absorption
and nonlinear refraction towards nonlinearity. Saturable absorption (SA) for C
60
nano particles is also established. RSA is not
established. FT-IR studies is also carried out to characterize the sample and to correlate the NLO studies.
