AbstractNonlinear optical properties of transition metal-phosphine complexes have been measured at 532 nm by degenerate four-wave mixing. Large second-order molecular hyperpolarizabilities, γ, have been found for complexes containing two phosphine ligands. The measured γ values are closely related to the type and coordination geometry of the phosphine ligands, and the γ values vary as the fifth power of the number of substituents with π-electrons structure.

ABSTRACTMeasurements of the third-order susceptibilities of new dithienylethylenes in solutions using a degenerate four wave mixing technique at λ=532 nm in picosecond regime were made. From these measurements we deduced the second order hyperpolarizabilities. Optical power limiting properties of the mentioned compounds using nanosecond laser pulses in the visible range are evaluated. The dispersion of nonlinear absorption coefficients is obtained. The appropriate quantum chemical calculations are carried out.

ABSTRACTWe have measured extremely large second hyperpolarizabilities〈γxxxx〉 in solutions of two recently prepared organic polymer semiconductor superlattices. These block copolymers are of alternating aromatic and quinoidal moieties and structurally differ by a side group substituent. The values observed are 1.6 × 10−29 esu for the parent copolymer (PBTBQ) and 3.7 × 10−30 esu for its acetoxy derivative (PBTABQ). The corresponding values of χ(3) are estimated to be 2.7 × 10−7 esu and 4.5 × 108 esu. The measurements, made by picosecond degenerate four wave mixing at 532 nm, showed that the dynamics of the larger χ(3) valued copolymer were faster than the 30 ps resolution of the instrument while the derivative exhibited a slower response. The large magnitude and rapid response of the cubic optical nonlinearities in these novel materials suggest theiT potential for further development and photonic device applications.

A number of transparent liquids have been evaluated for use in stimulated Brillouin scattering at 532 nm. Measurements were made of frequency shift, SBS threshold, reflectivity and optical breakdown properties. It was found that the alkanes, and in particular n-pentane, performed well and measurements were made of Brillouin gain coefficient and phonon lifetimes. It is suggested that these liquids are promising candidates for use in self-pumped phase conjugate mirrors, high gain Brillouin amplifiers and four-wave mixing mirrors.

Third order nonlinear optical properties of Poly(p-phenylenevinylene) have been investigated at 532 nm using degenerate four wave mixing and Z-scan techniques. Intensity dependent absorption has been attributed to photogenerated gap states arising from one-photon π–π* transition, and the coefficient of nonlinear absorption has been estimated. The observed intensity dependence of the degenerate four wave mixing signal has been explained using four-level model involving gap state transitions.

A novel ZnPc monomer as well as PPV-ZnPc conjugated polymers have been synthesized and their optical power limiting (OPL) performances toward picosecond laser pulses at 532 nm have been measured. The comparison with the performance of C 60 under the same condition indicates that two of the compounds synthesized outperformed C 60 at picosecond time scale. It was found that conjugated PPV polymers containing a small amount of ZnPc cannot only preserve, but have also showed improvement over the monomer's OPL properties. It is believed that the backbone modification was responsible for the enhanced OPL performance.
