AbstractWe characterize the optical properties of modified meso-alkynyl porphyrins by a number of techniques. Our data show that extending the conjugation and incorporating metal in the center of the ring in these molecules serve the objective of tuning the absorption maximum wavelength. We evaluate the optical limiting performance by determining the effective reversesaturable- absorption (RSA) lifetime and the change in the absorption cross-sections. The ultimate optical limiting performance of these molecules is tested in both picosecond and nanosecond regimes.

Metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) attract much attention for light-emitting applications due to their exceptional optical properties. More recently, perovskite NCs have begun to be considered a promising material for nonlinear optical applications. Numerous strategies have recently been developed to improve the properties of metal halide perovskite NCs. Among them, B-site doping is one of the most promising ways to enhance their brightness and stability. However, there is a lack of study of the influence of B-site doping on the nonlinear optical properties of inorganic perovskite NCs. Here, we demonstrate that Cd2+ doping simultaneously improves both the linear (higher photoluminescence quantum yield, larger exciton binding energy, reduced trap states density, and faster radiative recombination) and nonlinear (higher two- and three-photon absorption cross-sections) optical properties of CsPbBr3 NCs. Cd2+ doping results in a two-photon absorption cross-section, reaching 2.6 × 106 Goeppert-Mayer (GM), which is among the highest reported for CsPbBr3 NCs.

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.

Abstract. Sea ice radiative-transfer models are of great importance for prediction of future sea ice trends but they are limited by uncertainty in models and requirement for evaluation of modelled irradiance data against measured irradiance data. Presented here are the first results from the Royal Holloway sea ice simulator used to evaluate the output of the TUV-snow radiative-transfer model against the optical properties from the simulated sea ice. The sea ice simulator creates a realistic sea ice environment where both optical (reflectance and light penetration depth (e-folding depth)) and physical (temperature, salinity, density) properties of a ∼ 30 cm thick sea ice can be monitored and measured. Using albedo and e-folding depth data measured from simulated sea ice, scattering and absorption cross-sections of the ice are derived using the TUV-snow model. Absorption cross-sections for the ice are highly wavelength dependent, suggesting the addition of a further absorbing impurity in the ice matching the absorption spectrum of algae. Scattering cross-sections were wavelength independent with values ranging from 0.012 and 0.032 cm2 kg−1 for different ice created in the simulator. Reflectance and light penetration depth (e-folding depth) of sea ice is calculated from the derived values of the scattering and absorption cross-section using the TUV-snow model within error of the experiment. The model is also shown to replicate ice optical properties for sea ice with an extra layer doped with black carbon, well within error of the experiment. Particulate black carbon at mass ratios of 75, 150 and 300 ng g−1 in a 5 cm ice layer lowers the albedo by 97 %, 90 %, and 79 % compared to clean ice at a wavelength of 500 nm.

The plasmonic rod-in-shell nanoparticles have a number of favorable optical properties for the photothermal therapy application compared to the nanorods: increased longitudinal and transversal absorption cross-sections in the NIR window I, a larger and highly tunable absorption cross-section in the NIR window II, orientation of particles insensitive to the heat generation.

Three tri-branched oligomers based on 1,3,5-triazine with large two-photon absorption cross-sections and good optical limiting properties were investigated by UV–Visible, femtosecond Z-scan and one/two-color pump-probe measurements. The two-photon absorption cross-section results measured at a wavelength of 800[Formula: see text]nm were found decreasing with the number of fluorene groups in each branches. The optical limiting properties were also investigated and a two-photon absorption mechanism was proposed. One/two-color pump-probe measurements were also used to further investigate the ultrafast responses of these tri-branched oligomers. The ultrafast response results indicated that after excitation, the tri-branched oligomers will first undergo a fast process to form an intramolecular charge transfer state followed by relaxation of the intramolecular charger transfer state of approximately several hundred ps.
