To provide an insight into the optical limiting (OL) behavior of a series of 3 metallated 1,4,8,11,15,18,22,25-octaalkylphthalocyanines; the third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties, one-photon absorption (OPA) and two-photon absorption (TPA) characterizations have been theoretically investigated by means of AM1, ZINDO and configuration interaction (CI) methods. The highest values for the TPA cross-section (δ(ω)) are exhibited by derivatives metallated with indium and lead. It is also seen that the nickel-metallated compound might be a passive optical limiter of the series, indicating the weakest δ(ω) and second hyperpolarizability (γ). Our calculated results are in good agreement with the previous experimental observations on the examined molecules.

Optical limiting characteristics of pure and 150 ppm Fe-doped Bi 12 SiO 20 (BSO:Fe) crystals are studied at high intensity nanosecond pulse regime. When the input light is at 532 nm and at 595 nm with 6 ns pulse duration, a good optical limiting behavior is observed due to simultaneous effect of trap assisted excited state absorption and two photon absorption. The precise role of the internal defects due to impurity centers present in the crystal lattice is explained on the basis of a four level model. This study reveal that the increased nonlinear absorption due to iron incorporation in BSO makes it an excellent passive optical limiter.

AbstractThe molecular structure / nonlinear optical (NLO) property relationship is explored with seven recently synthesized chromophores. Two symmetrical compounds were made using electron withdrawing groups separated by an electron rich core while five asymmetrical molecules were developed using electron donating and withdrawing groups coupled by a it electron bridging group. Pendant chains were added to some of the chromophores to improve processibility. Their syntheses are described and their optical limiting properties discussed.

A highly-conjugated polar dye with three aromatic rings connected with azo groups was prepared and it was incorporated in polycinnamate. It showed a third-order nonlinear susceptibility of 8 × 10-10 esu determined by a Z-scan technique. The unpoled and poled films show the same susceptibility indicating the polymer film could not be poled. The open aperture Z-scan showed negligible two-photon absorption at 1064 nm.
