In this study, the photophysical, nonlinear absorption and nonlinear optical limiting properties of zinc and gallium phthalocyanine complexes: tetrakis[(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl phenoxy)phthalocyaninato]zinc(II) (3), tetrakis[(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl phenoxy)phthalocyaninato] gallium(III) chloride (4), tetrakis[(benzo[d]thiazol-2-ylthio)phthalocyaninato] zinc(II) (5), tetrakis[(benzo[d]thiazol-2-ylthio)phthalocyaninato] gallium(III) chloride (6), were investigated both in solution and when embedded in polystyrene thin films using 532 nm laser excitation at 10 ns pulses. It was also observed that complexes that have higher triplet state absorption also possessed enhanced nonlinear and optical limiting behavior. Superior optical performance was observed when the complexes were embedded in thin films compared to when they are in solution. Complex 6 in thin films gave the highest imaginary third-order susceptibility (I[Formula: see text][X[Formula: see text]]) and hyperpolarizability ([Formula: see text] at 4.61 × 10[Formula: see text] esu and 3.44 × 10[Formula: see text] esu, respectively, with a low I[Formula: see text] value of 0.06 J.cm[Formula: see text]

π-Conjugated organic materials exhibit high and tunable nonlinear optical (NLO) properties, and fast response times. 4′-Phenyl-2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine (PTP) is an important N-heterocyclic ligand involving π-conjugated systems, however, studies concerning the third-order NLO properties of terpyridine transition metal complexes are limited. The title binuclear terpyridine CoIIcomplex, bis(μ-4,4′-oxydibenzoato)-κ3O,O′:O′′;κ3O′′:O,O′-bis[(4′-phenyl-2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine-κ3N,N′,N′′)cobalt(II)], [Co2(C14H8O5)2(C21H15N3)2], (1), has been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. In the crystal structure, each CoIIcation is surrounded by three N atoms of a PTP ligand and three O atoms, two from a bidentate and one from a symmetry-related monodentate 4,4′-oxydibenzoate (ODA2−) ligand, completing a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Neighbouring [Co(PTP)]2+units are bridged by ODA2−ligands to form a ring-like structure. The third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of (1) and PTP were determined in thin films using the Z-scan technique. The title compound shows a strong third-order NLO saturable absorption (SA), while PTP exhibits a third-order NLO reverse saturable absorption (RSA). The absorptive coefficient β of (1) is −37.3 × 10−7 m W−1, which is larger than that (8.96 × 10−7 m W−1) of PTP. The third-order NLO susceptibility χ(3)values are calculated as 6.01 × 10−8 e.s.u. for (1) and 1.44 × 10−8 e.s.u. for PTP.

Three 1,3-dithiole-2-thioxo-4,5-dithiolato compounds, ethyltriphenylphosphonium bis(2-thioxo-1.3-dithiole-4,5-dithiolato)aurate(III) (TPEPADT), benzyltriethylamine bis(2-thioxo-1.3-dithiole-4,5-dithiolato)aurate(III) (BTEAADT) and benzyltriethylamine bis(2-thioxo-1.3-dithiole-4,5-dithiolato)nickel(III) (BTEANDT), were synthesized and the BTEAADT-doped PMMA thin film (BD film) and TPEPADT-doped PMMA thin film (TD film) with mass fraction of 1% were prepared by spin-coating method. The third-order nonlinear optical properties of thin films and three compounds in acetonitrile solutions were investigated by using the laser [Formula: see text]-scan technique with 20 ps pulses at 1064 nm. The [Formula: see text]-scan spectra revealed that TPEPADT and BTEAADT exhibited self-defocusing effect and negligible nonlinear absorption, but BTEANDT exhibited self-focusing effect and stronger saturable absorption. The reason for this difference was analyzed. The magnitudes of third-order nonlinear refractive indices and third-order nonlinear susceptibility were [Formula: see text], 10[Formula: see text] esu for the solution samples and [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] esu for thin films. All these results suggest that these materials are promising candidates for application in the nonlinear optical area at infrared band.

A series of polymeric thin films with BFDT (BFDT = 4,5-bis(foroylsulfanyl)-1,3-dithiole-2-thione) doped in PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) were fabricated by means of spin-coating on quartz substrate. The third-order nonlinear optical properties of the films were investigated by Z-scan technique at 532 nm wavelength with 20 ps pulse width. The influences of doping concentration for third-order nonlinearity were also studied. A self-defocusing effect was observed from the Z-scan curves and the nonlinear refractive index of the film increases with the increase in doping concentration. Our results suggest that considerable nonlinear optical properties were found in BFDT. In addition, it was found that the nonlinear coefficient of the BFDT-doped PMMA thin film was about two orders of magnitude larger than that of homologous materials with organic solvents. By analysis, we can conclude that the material is a potential candidate for applications of nonlinear optics and can be considered in the fabrication of all-optical switching devices, etc.
