Multiphonon absorption coefficients in solids: a universal curve

TL;DR: In this article, a universal curve for the frequency dependence of the multiphoton absorption coefficient is proposed based on a non-perturbative approach, which yields results for the higher-order absorption coefficients in good agreement with the experimental data.

Large two-photon absorptivity of hemoglobin in the infrared range of 780-880 nm.

TL;DR: Hemoglobin was found to have a peak two-photon absorptivity of sigmaTPA approximately 150 GM at lambda0=825 nm, near a resonance of the Soret band, which supports theoretical expectations and shows that the ligand affects the electronic states involved in TPA.
