The search for advanced optical materials, in particular, materials with nonlinear optical responses, has, in the last years, experienced substantial growth due to their vast applications in the photonics field. One of those applications is ultra-fast optical frequency conversion, in the optics communications field. Organic compounds have emerged as promising candidates for raw materials to develop nonlinear optical devices, such as optical converters, due to their intrinsic ultra-fast electronic responses. Also, the easy tailoring of organic molecular structures makes organic materials much more appealing than the inorganic ones. In this work, we have performed a linear and nonlinear optical characterization of a set of dibenzylideneacetone derivatives. The nonlinear optical responses investigated correspond to second- and third-order nonlinear processes, namely, first electronic molecular hyperpolarizability and two-photon absorption cross-section, respectively. The value of the first electronic molecular hyperpolarizability, up to 52 cm4·statvolt−1, could be considered a robust value when compared to the short-sized π-electron backbone length of the studied compounds. Such results suggest that these compounds exhibit the potential to be used as optical frequency converters. Quantum chemical calculations were used to predict the theoretical value of the first molecular hyperpolarizability, as well as to simulate the one- and two-photon absorption spectra for all compounds.

“…The interest in molecules and crystals that exhibit efficient nonlinear optical properties (NLO) has grown substantially in the last two decades [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9], which is mainly due to their potential applications in optoelectronic and optical devices such as light emitting diodes, photo detectors, solar cells, laser generators, biosensors, optical computing, optical communications and optical storage [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. The development of new materials, whose parameters allow their use in the field of photonics for nonlinear second-order optical applications, requires the knowledge of the nonlinear polarization properties of the constituent molecules [13].…”

et al. 2019

In this work we investigate the solvent media effects on the nonlinear optical properties of a chalcone derivative, (2E)-3-(3-methylphenyl)-1-(4-nitrophenyl) prop-2-en-1-one (3MPNP), using the polarizable continuum model (PCM) at DFT/B3LYP/6-311+G(d) level. The behavior of the hyper-Rayleigh scattering first hyperpolarizability and the average second hyperpolarizability, are studied as function of the dielectric constant of the solvent medium in both dynamic and static cases.

“…Apesar dessas características promissoras, as propriedades ópticas não lineares das chalconas, mais especificamente, as hiperpolarizabilidades de primeira e segunda ordem, foram pouco analisadas até então, 28 porém apresentam valores significativos com relação à absorção multifotônica (da ordem de 20 GM) e também a primeira hiperpolarizabilidade β (aproximadamente da ordem de 10 × 10 −30 cm 5 /esu). 29 Dentro desse escopo, um sistema de nove derivados de chalconas será amplamente estudado nessa dissertação de mestrado tendo como principal estudo a determinação da influência dos grupos laterais nas propriedades ópticas não lineares. Aspectos como a amplitudes dos efeitos e o deslocamento espectral dos mesmos serão avaliados e uma descrição fenomenológica será empregada para se obter parâmetros importantes das moléculas, como, por exemplo, momentos de dipolo de transição.…”

The use of lasers for study, analyses and characterization of materials are of great importance for progress and development of science and technology, improving in a cyclic way the nonlinear optics area (NLO). Studies of the behave of π-conjugated organic compounds show its wide applicability in electronic devices and in the medicinal area. Adding electron donor or acceptor lateral groups to these compounds may alter its nonlinear optical effects, optimizing its properties. In this Master dissertation, studies on organic compounds focused in its nonlinear optical characteristics were realized. Nine chalcone derivatives and four azomethines derivatives were analyzed using the Hyper-Rayleigh Scattering technique (HRS) and Z-Scan technique, by which the nonlinear optical effects observed corresponds to the second and third order of the polarizabilities, respectively. With the HRS the first hyperpolarizability β HRS was determined, which the highest values was of 24×10 −30 cm 5 /esu for the chalcones, and 273×10 −30 cm 5 /esu for the azomethines. The Z-Scan technique was utilized for determining the two-photon cross-section σ 2P A which peak values of the chalcone derivatives were of approximately 15 GM and some of them presented excited states that are only allowed by two-photon absorption. Two of the azomethines derivatives molecules presented peak values of the order of 12 GM, one of them did not present two-photon absorption, and one presented peak value of 55 GM. Furthermore, the Sum-OverStates (SOS) method was used to determine the transition dipole momentums and the difference of permanent dipole momentum of all of the derivatives.
