Third-order optical nonlinearities of three highly-substituted phthalocyanines (Pcs) containing central metal atom VO , Al , and Cu were investigated under resonant conditions by femtosecond degenerate four-wave mixing. The dynamics of the nonlinear response was found to be strongly dependent on the nature of the central metal atom and molecular stacking form. The electronic molecular hyperpolarizability of the Pcs was evaluated and compared with their structure-related analogues. The electronic third-order susceptibilities of the solid films containing the Pcs were determined to be in the range of 10-10 to 10-9 esu. We attempt to give structure-property relationships in these macrocyclic compounds.

ABSTRACTApproximations are applied to the three-level perturbation theory expressions for the third order optical polarizability. We conclude there will be three competing dominant terms, γ ≈ γc + γn + γtp each of which can be optimized at different molecular electronic structures. The two-photon term, γtp, has been commonly ascribed as the most dominant one for γ. However, the other two terms, which optimize at different structures, potentially offer equivalent or larger overall γ. The term, γn, will be optimized at structures with large second order polarizability β, while the term, γC, optimizes at certain centrosymmetric free electron structures with large first order polarization, α Optimization by γc is the preferred route, since this leads to elimination of the canceling terms which limit optimization by γtp or γn. Recent EFISH results have confirmed our earlier speculations that the free electron squarylium dye structures are particularly good for optimization by way of γc. Strategies are presented to selectively optimize to either of the three structure types and to obtain molecules with even larger γ.

Nine new quadrupolar chromophores based on diketopyrrolopyrrole were designed and prepared by cross-coupling reactions. The property tuning has been achieved by structural variation of the peripheral substituents (donor) and enlargement of the π-system. Fundamental properties of target molecules were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, electrochemistry, and absorption and emission spectra. Nonlinear optical properties were studied by measuring the third harmonic generation. The experimental data were completed by quantum-chemical calculations and structure–property relationships were elucidated.
