  ABSTRACT: The nonlinear properties of Tris(acetylacetonato) Manganese(III) are used to manipulate the spatial frequencies at the Fourier plane using 4f-z scan. The technique is a simple self-adaptive all-optical system, which performs image processing and nonlinear optical measurements at the same time. Preferred spatial frequencies can be selected by shifting the nonlinear sample through the focus. Edge enhancement was demonstrated by filtering of low frequency with the nonlinear material at the Fourier plane.
