Chromophore design for large two-photon absorption
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Conjugated oligothiophene chromophores are compared and studied for designing large linear and nonlinear absorption cross-sections. Optical properties of chromophores synthesized by the Naval Research Laboratory are modeled to construct a design factor of merit to predict and understand two-photon absorption (TPA) designs. Computer modeling to optimize parameters to produce photo active chromophores is conducted. Geometry, π -center (electron relay) and the electron donor or acceptor groups attached to the π -centers are considered for importance in TPA. This work could serve equally well as guide for quick back of the envelop research or industrial design verifications as well as an outline for introducing computation methods to students.
