Nonlinear optical properties and performance optimization of the pro-aromatic chromophores for NLO materials

Geometric structures and nonlinear optical properties (NLO) of the pro-aromatic chromophores, comprising indoline moiety as an electron donor and azo linker as a π-conjugated bridge, have been investigated by means of quantum chemistry method and the response theory. Three solvent models were used to study the short-range interaction and long-range interaction between solvent and solution in order to simulate the experimental spectra. Simulated absorption used by the polarizable continuum model gave a well agreement with experimental measurement. The micro-mechanisms of first hyperpolarizability were explained on the basis of the two-level models, and charge difference density methods demonstrated that the chromophore (4f), which indoline moiety acts as an electron donor and N,N-dimethyl formamide as an acceptor bridged by azo bridge, displays an efficient intramolecular charge transfer properties amplifying the NLO response. Calculations of two-photon absorption (TPA) for the indoline chromophore were performed to develop their potential application on TPA materials. Additionally, some molecules were designed by replacing electron donor and introducing additional heteroatoms to tune the NLO parameters. The results show 4f-a with 1,4-phenylenediamine donor unit and introducing one heteroatom display well NLO character.

Photoaddressable Polymers for Optical Data Storage

Photoaddressable polymers (PAPs) are side‐chain copolymer systems functionalized with azobenzene chromophores and mesogenic side groups. They show very large birefringence values after illumination with polarized light. The molecular mechanisms involved are photoinduced isomerization cycles of the azo side groups, which induce strong molecular reorientations (cooperative motion of light‐absorbing azobenzene chromophores and non‐absorbing mesogenic groups). Due to the long‐term and high‐temperature stability of their light‐induced birefringence, PAPs are very promising recording materials for optical data storage applications such as high‐capacity DVDs and holographic memory.     

Halide Perovskites for Nonlinear Optics

Halide perovskites provide an ideal platform for engineering highly promising semiconductor materials for a wide range of applications in optoelectronic devices, such as photovoltaics, light-emitting diodes, photodetectors, and lasers. More recently, increasing research efforts have been directed toward the nonlinear optical properties of halide perovskites because of their unique chemical and electronic properties, which are of crucial importance for advancing their applications in next-generation photonic devices. Here, the current state of the art in the field of nonlinear optics (NLO) in halide perovskite materials is reviewed. Halide perovskites are categorized into hybrid organic/inorganic and pure inorganic ones, and their second-, third-, and higher-order NLO properties are summarized. The performance of halide perovskite materials in NLO devices such as upconversion lasers and ultrafast laser modulators is analyzed. Several potential perspectives and research directions of these promising materials for nonlinear optics are presented.     

Synthesis and the third-order non-linear optical properties of new azobenzene-containing side-chain polymers

A new series of aromatic azobenzol compounds containing vinyl have been designed as monomers. The azobenzene-containing side-chain polymers containing azo NLO chromophore in each side chain have been synthesized via free radical polymerization. FT-IR, elemental analysis and ¹H NMR were performed to characterize the azo monomers. The molecular weight of the polymers and their distribution were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The third-order NLO coefficient of azo monomers and their polymers were measured by degenerated four wave mixing (DFWM) technique. As a result, the enhancement of the molecular conjugation and the increase of the NLO chromophore concentration in the molecular chain contribute much to heightening the third-order NLO effect. The electronic effect of substituent on the azobenzol group and the push–pull electronic structure contributes much to enhancing the NLO property.     

Functional Dendrimers for Nonlinear Optics

Novel nonlinear optical (NLO) building blocks can be placed into the periphery, branch, or core of a dendrimer to construct precise molecular architecture with predetermined chemical composition. The site‐isolation effect, through the encapsulation of active moieties by dendrons, or the cooperative effect, through the coherent interaction among the same or different kinds of active blocks in the dendrimer, can greatly enhance the performance of NLO materials. This paper provides a review of recent developments in dendrimers for NLO applications, such as electro‐optics (E‐O), photorefractive (PR) materials, second harmonic generation (SHG), and two‐photon absorption (TPA).

Birefringence relaxation in photosensitive polymer optical fiber preform

The birefringence relaxation of photosensitive polymer optical fiber preform with low azo concentration is analyzed. Instead of bi-exponential function, tri-exponential one is introduced to describe the relaxation process. Three types of relaxation are given considering the movements of chromophores, side chains, and main chains. The conserved birefringence, which depends on the orientation of main chains, is also studied through comparison of three kinds of materials with different interaction between side chain and main chain.     

Polymers for Nonlinear Optics

Nonlinear optical (NLO) materials provide the basis for an array of active optical devices under development throughout several high technology industries. Applications would include communications, data storage, and computing. Active optical devices can be used to alter light in order to encode or direct information in a number of ways. While the applications of optical technology such as fiber optics, optical storage and optical displays have identified a need for such devices, material properties have so far limited their introduction. Intensive, world-wide, development of specifically designed polymers appears to offer the most attractive solution.     

Enhanced third-order nonlinear optical properties in dendrimer-metal nanocomposites

Nonlinear optical (NLO) and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopic measurements of dendrimer-metal nanocomposites (DNCs) are reported. Third-order NLO effects were investigated by degenerate four-wave mixing (DFWM) measurements for DNCs and DNCs incorporated into thin polymeric films. The results show an enhancement of the third-order nonlinear susceptibility for the chromophore-functionalized dendrimer-metal nanocomposites. Investigations of the mechanism of the enhanced NLO effect suggested a strong contribution because of the metal's local field. These results show the potential usefulness of dendrimer-metal nanocomposites for nonlinear optical effects and biophotonic applications.
