Self-phase modulation is used in different nonlinear optical experiments, such as nonlinear femtosecond laser pulse compression techniques and transient absorption spectroscopy. We used a spatial light modulator to create a spectral hole in the spectrum of femtosecond laser pulse. Spectral redistribution effects, due to self-phase modulation were studied close and below the threshold energies. Z-scans were performed in order to demonstrate the surface sensitivity of this technique. This may have applications in the field of material processing and microscopy.
