Enhanced Super continuum generation in water in the presence of ultra-dilute solutions P.K. Joshi1* , A.K. Dharmadhikari1 , P.M. Barvalia2 and V.P. Joshi2 1Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai 2Spandan – Holistic Institute of Applied Homeopathy, Mumbai Intense ultrashort laser beam, after propagation through a transparent medium (water in this work), experiences self-focusing, thereby increasing the intensities in localized area to such high values so as to induce nonlinear optical effects like the generation of white light super-continuum and multi-photon absorption. We have carried out experiments for measuring super-continuum generation in water that contains ultra dilute solutes (of ethanol). Our observations of generation of super-continuum spectra in various solutes indicate that our measurements are able to make a distinction between normal water and water mixed with such ultra-dilute solutes i.e. Homoeopathic medicines. Summary The linear absorption spectrum does not show any variation in the plain and treated alcohol. The comparison of the supercontinuum generation spectra of water containing plain ethanol and the treated ethanol i.e. Homoeopathic medicines show increase in supercontinuum generation in water containing treated alcohol. Further experiments are required to identify the mechanisms that cause these variations.
