چکیده

Extended bis(donor)-substituted squaraine chromophores exhibit very high two-photon cross-sections (as high as 33 000 GM) in the near-IR; these can be attributed to the combination of large transition dipoles with small detuning energies. The modulus of the third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility at 1.3 mum has been found to be 7.0 x 10-11 esu for one of these chromophores.

Multipolar symmetric squaraines with large two-photon absorption cross-sections in the NIR region.

The two-photon absorption (TPA) properties of two extended symmetric squaraine dyes are thoroughly characterized from the experimental and quantum-chemical point of view. The two molecules are specially engineered to have a multipolar structure with increasing complexity, D-π-A-π-D and A'-π-D-π-A-π-D-π-A', respectively. The experimental TPA spectra, measured by means of the Z-scan technique in ...

Linear and nonlinear spectroscopy of a porphyrin-squaraine-porphyrin conjugated system.

The linear and nonlinear absorption properties of a squaraine-bridged porphyrin dimer (POR-SQU-POR) are investigated using femto-, pico-, and nanosecond pulses to understand intramolecular processes, obtain molecular optical parameters, and perform modeling of the excited-state dynamics. The optical behavior of POR-SQU-POR is compared with its separate porphyrin and squaraine constituent moieti...

Synthesis and two-photon spectrum of a bis(porphyrin)-substituted squaraine.

A chromophore in which zinc porphyrin donors are linked through their meso positions by ethynyl bridges to a bis(indolinylidenemethyl) squaraine core has been synthesized using Sonogashira coupling. The chromophore exhibits a two-photon absorption spectrum characterized by a peak cross section of 11,000 GM and, more unusually, also exhibits a large cross section of >780 GM over a photon-wavelen...

Efficient two-photon absorbing acceptor-pi-acceptor polymethine dyes.

We present an experimental and theoretical investigation of the linear and nonlinear optical properties of a series of acceptor-pi-acceptor symmetrical anionic polymethine dyes with diethylamino-coumarin-dioxaborine terminal groups and different conjugation lengths. Two-photon absorption (2PA) cross sections (delta(2PA)) are enhanced with an increase of pi-conjugation length in the investigated...

Squaraine-derived rotaxanes: sterically protected fluorescent near-IR dyes.

A squaraine dye with bulky end groups is employed as the thread component in two Leigh-type amide rotaxanes. The rotaxanes are synthesized in a simple two-step process. X-ray crystal structures of the rotaxanes show that the pyridyl-containing macrocycle is more rigid and wraps more tightly around the cyclobutene core of the squaraine thread compared to the isophthalamide-containing macrocycle....
