The structures and frequencies of Dinaphtho[2,3-b:2’,3’-d]thiophene-5,7,12,13-tetraone (DNTTRA) and its 36 derivatives containing azobenzene were calculated by using density functional theory B3LYP and M06-2X methods at 6-311++g(d, p) level, respectively. Besides, the atomic charges of natural bond orbitals (NBO) were analyzed. The frontier orbitals and electron absorption spectra of A-G5 molecule were calculated by TD-DFT (TD-B3LYP/6-311++g(d, p) and TD-M06-2X/6-311++g(d, p)). The NLO properties were calculated by effective finite field FF method and self-compiled program. The results show that 36 molecules of these six series are D-π-A-π-D structures. The third-order NLO coefficients γ (second-order hyperpolarizability) of the D series molecules are the largest among the six series, reaching 10<sup>7</sup> atomic units (10<sup><span style="color:#4F4F4F;font-family:-apple-system, " font-size:14px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;"="">-</span>33</sup> esu) of order of magnitude, showing good third-order NLO properties. Last, the third-order NLO properties of the azobenzene ring can be improved by introducing strong electron donor groups (e.g. -N(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> or -NHCH<sub>3</sub>) in the azobenzene ring, so that the third-order NLO materials with good performance can be obtained.展开更多

As a result of introducing a long acyl to pyrrole at 3-position, the polymer can be easily solved in polar solvents and be processed into films. The chemical structures of the intermediates and POPNBE were characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR, and UV-Vis-NIR spectrometries. The absorption band in the range of 400-600 nm in the UV-Vis-NIR spectrum is due to the π-π * band gap transition. The optical band gap of POPNBE obtained from the optical absorption is about 1.72 eV. The resonant third-order nonlinear optical property of POPNBE at 532 nm was studied by using the degenerate four-wave mixing(DFWM) technique. The resonant third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility of POPNBE is about 3.42×10 -8 esu.展开更多

The results show that the TOD causes the asymmetry of the temporal- and spectral-domain, and the chirp characteristics. The OWB generally appears near the pulse center and at the trailing edge of the pulse, instead of at the two edges of the pulse symmetrically in the case of no TOD. With the increase of distance, the relation of OWB to the TOD near the pulse center increases quickly, leading to the generation of ultra-short pulse trains, while the OWB resulting from the case of no TOD at the trailing edge of the pulse disappears gradually. In addition, the positive （negative） QN enhances （weakens） the chirp amount and the fine structures, thereby inducing the OWB phenomena to appear earlier （later）. Thus, the TOD and the positive （negative） QN are beneficial （detrimental） to the OWB and the generation of ultra-short pulse trains.展开更多

Their second-order hyperpolarizability is estimated to be 0.74× 10^-30esu and 3.0× 10^-3esu respectively. This exhibits an evident enhancement in comparison with 0.47×10^-30esu for one-decker Eu（Pc）（acac） （acac=acetylacetonate）, which is also measured under the same conditions. The enhancement is attributed to the introduction of lanthanide metal to the large π-conjugated system, intermacrocycle interaction and two-photon resonance etc.展开更多

It is observed that the nonlinear optical response of Cu Se nanocrystals is sensitively dependent on the excitation wavelength and exhibits the enhanced nonlinearity compared with other selenides such as ZnSe and CdSe. The W-shaped Z-scan trace, a mixture of the reversed saturated absorption and saturated absorption, is observed near the plasmon resonance band of Cu Se nanocrystals, which is attributed to the state-filling of free carriers generated by copper vacancies (self-doping effect) of Cu Se nanocrystals as well as the hot carrier thermal effect upon intense femtosecond laser excitation. The large nonlinear optical response and tunable plasmonic band make Cu Se nanocrystals promising materials for applications in ultra-fast all-optical switching devices as well as nonlinear nanosensors.展开更多

The origins of the optical switching effect were discussed. By the study of nonlinear optical properties for HBT in ethanol solvent, this paper verified that the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer （ESIPT） effect of HBT and the thermal effect of solvent worked on quite different time scales and together induced the change of the refractive index of HBT solution, leading to the signal beam deflection. The results indicated that the HBT molecule could be an excellent candidate for high-speed and high-sensitive optical switching devices.展开更多

The analysis of β components indicated that these amino acid zinc(II) porphyrins are of multipola- rizabilities, and they may be ascribed as the “mixture” of octupolar and dipoar molecules with ||βJ=3||/||βJ=1|| ≈ 5. It is found that there are no significant differences between the static β values of non-chiral and chiral amino acid zinc(II) porphyrins. However, the βxyz component, which is quite important to quadratic macroscopic χ (2) susceptibility of chiral material, is increased significantly with the increase of side chain group of amino acids.展开更多

The Z-scan spectra reveal a strong nonlinear absorption （reverse saturable absorption） and a negative nonlinear refraction at 532 nm. No nonlinear absorption is observed at 1064 nm. The molecular second-order hyperpolarizability γ for the [（CH3）4N]Au（dmit）2 molecule at 532nm is estimated to be as high as （2.1 ±0.1） × 10^-31 esu, which is nearly three times larger than that at 1064 nm. The mechanism responsible for the difference between the results is analysed. Nonlinear transmission measurements suggest that this material has potential applications in optical limiting.展开更多

文摘The study of nonlinear optical responses in the mid-infrared(mid-IR)regime is essential for advancing ultrafast mid-IR laser applications.However,nonlinear optical effects under mid-IR excitation are rarely reported due to the lack of suitable nonlinear optical materials.The natural van derWaals heterostructure franckeite,known for its narrow bandgap and stability in air,shows great potential for developing mid-IR nonlinear optical devices.We have experimentally demonstrated that layered franckeite exhibits a broadband wavelength-dependent nonlinear optical response in the mid-IR spectral region.Franckeite nanosheets were prepared using a liquid-phase exfoliation method,and their nonlinear optical response was characterized in the spectral range of 3000 nm to 5000 nm.The franckeite nanosheets exhibit broadband wavelengthdependent third-order nonlinearities,with nonlinear absorption and refraction coefficients estimated to be about 10^(-7)cm/W and 10^(-11)cm^(2)/W,respectively.Additionally,a passively Q-switched fluoride fiber laser operating around a wavelength of 2800 nm was achieved,delivering nanosecond pulses with a signal-to-noise ratio of 43.6 dB,based on the nonlinear response of franckeite.These findings indicate that layered franckeite possesses broadband nonlinear optical characteristics in the mid-IR region,potentially enabling new possibilities for mid-IR photonic devices.

文摘The third-order optical nonlinearity of two sandwich-type phthalocyaninato and porphyrinato europium com- plexes, including double- and triple-deckers （Eu[Pc（OC5H11）8]2, Eu2（Pc）（TPP）2, Pc=phthalocyanine, TPP=5, 10, 15, 20- tetraphenylporphyrinate）, was investigated by using the femtosecond time-resolved optical Kerr gate method at 830 nm wavelength. Their second-order hyperpolarizability is estimated to be 0.74× 10^-30esu and 3.0× 10^-3esu respectively. This exhibits an evident enhancement in comparison with 0.47×10^-30esu for one-decker Eu（Pc）（acac） （acac=acetylacetonate）, which is also measured under the same conditions. The enhancement is attributed to the introduction of lanthanide metal to the large π-conjugated system, intermacrocycle interaction and two-photon resonance etc.

文摘The third-order nonlinear optical properties of water-soluble Cu Se nanocrystals are studied in the near infrared range of 700-980 nm using a femtosecond pulsed laser by the Z-scan technique. It is observed that the nonlinear optical response of Cu Se nanocrystals is sensitively dependent on the excitation wavelength and exhibits the enhanced nonlinearity compared with other selenides such as ZnSe and CdSe. The W-shaped Z-scan trace, a mixture of the reversed saturated absorption and saturated absorption, is observed near the plasmon resonance band of Cu Se nanocrystals, which is attributed to the state-filling of free carriers generated by copper vacancies (self-doping effect) of Cu Se nanocrystals as well as the hot carrier thermal effect upon intense femtosecond laser excitation. The large nonlinear optical response and tunable plasmonic band make Cu Se nanocrystals promising materials for applications in ultra-fast all-optical switching devices as well as nonlinear nanosensors.

文摘This paper demonstrates an all-optical switching model system comprising a single pulsed pump beam at 355 nm and a CW He-Ne signal beam at 632.8 nm with 2-（2＇-hydroxyphenyl）benzothiazole （HBT） in ethanol solution. The origins of the optical switching effect were discussed. By the study of nonlinear optical properties for HBT in ethanol solvent, this paper verified that the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer （ESIPT） effect of HBT and the thermal effect of solvent worked on quite different time scales and together induced the change of the refractive index of HBT solution, leading to the signal beam deflection. The results indicated that the HBT molecule could be an excellent candidate for high-speed and high-sensitive optical switching devices.
文摘On the basis of adding the bond functions (3s 3p 2d) to the basis sets 6-311G ( 2d 2p ) for increasing the efficiency of the basis sets , we have carried out the MP2 calculations of nonlinear optical properties includintg dipole moment uo,polarizibili- ty ao and hyperpolarizability , for CH4-nFn (n = 1 , 2 , 3). The results are in good a- greement with those of experimentsl The roles of the bond functions in the calcula- tions are shown , i. e., the improved values of the properties are about 2%-7% at the SCF level and about 6%-30% at the correlated level (MP2). It is shown that the more important role of the bond functions in calculating is the im- provement of the effects of the corrections of electronic correlations and the increase of the effects is in the order of. In addition , it is also shown that the cal-, culated value of a property does not change with the bond-function location in our calculations except for the regions close to the nuclei in a molecule.
文摘Dond function basis sets have been used to calculate the molecular nonlinear optical properties which include hyperpolarizability βo , polarizability ao , and dipole moment μo for six molecules. The calculations at the fourth-order Moller-Plesset approximation (MP4) have recovered more than 90% of the experimental values βo , comparecl to that as low as 75% by the other authors. The calculated values of αo and iuo are also in good agreement with those of experiments and superior to that from other work. It is shown that the bond functions improve the calculated results at SCF level and especially at the level of the correction of electronic correlation (MP2 and MP4).

文摘Static second-order nonlinear optical effects of amino acid zinc(II) porphyrins 1, 2, 3 and 4 were calculated by the TDHF/PM3 method based on the molecular structures optimized at the semiempirical PM3 quantum chemistry level, showing due to the cancellation of symmetric center, these amino acid zinc(II) porphyrins exhibit second order nonlinear optical response. The analysis of β components indicated that these amino acid zinc(II) porphyrins are of multipola- rizabilities, and they may be ascribed as the “mixture” of octupolar and dipoar molecules with ||βJ=3||/||βJ=1|| ≈ 5. It is found that there are no significant differences between the static β values of non-chiral and chiral amino acid zinc(II) porphyrins. However, the βxyz component, which is quite important to quadratic macroscopic χ (2) susceptibility of chiral material, is increased significantly with the increase of side chain group of amino acids.

文摘The third-order optical nonlinearities of [（CH3）4N]Au（dmit）2 （dmit = 4,5-dithiolate-1,3-dithiole-2-thione） at 532 nm and 1064 nm are investigated using the Z-scan technique with pulses of picoseconds duration. The Z-scan spectra reveal a strong nonlinear absorption （reverse saturable absorption） and a negative nonlinear refraction at 532 nm. No nonlinear absorption is observed at 1064 nm. The molecular second-order hyperpolarizability γ for the [（CH3）4N]Au（dmit）2 molecule at 532nm is estimated to be as high as （2.1 ±0.1） × 10^-31 esu, which is nearly three times larger than that at 1064 nm. The mechanism responsible for the difference between the results is analysed. Nonlinear transmission measurements suggest that this material has potential applications in optical limiting.

文摘The fully oxidized state of polyaniline (PANI), pernigraniline (PN), was synthesized by oxidation of the emeraldine base form of PAM dissolved in NMP solvent with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. The resulted PN was characterized by FTIR and UV-Visible spectra. The third-order nonlinear optical properties of PN in concentrated sulfuric acid (PN/H2SO4) were measured by a degenerated four wave mixing (DFWM) method. The results obtained suggest that the soliton-pair intermediate state associated with the degenerated state does not play a major role in the third order nonlinear optical properties of PANI.
