Large First Hyperpolarizabilities in Push-Pull Polyenes by Tuning of the Bond Length Alternation and Aromaticity

Seth R. Marder, +6 more
- 28 Jan 1994 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the design strategies demonstrated in chromophores that when incorporated into poled-polymer electrooptic modulators exhibited significant enhancements in electro-optic coefficients relative to polymers containing the commonly used dye Disperse Red-1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced two-photon absorption of organic chromophores: theoretical and experimental assessments ∗∗

Francesca Terenziani, +4 more
- 17 Dec 2008 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of experimental and theoretical methodologies allowing detailed investigation and analysis of two-photon absorption properties of organic chromophores is presented, focusing on symmetric and asymmetric donor/acceptor substitution and branching.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distance-Dependent Fluorescence Quenching on Gold Nanoparticles Ensheathed with Layer-by-Layer Assembled Polyelectrolytes

Grégory F. Schneider, +5 more
- 27 Jan 2006 - 
TL;DR: UV-visible spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy confirm that the particle suspensions of fluorescently labeled core/shell nanoparticles are stable at all stages of their construction and strongly distance-dependent fluorescence quenching in these particle systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Charge instability in quadrupolar chromophores: symmetry breaking and solvatochromism.

Francesca Terenziani, +4 more
- 14 Nov 2006 - 
TL;DR: A model based on a few-state description of the charge-transfer processes characterizing the low-energy physics of multipolar molecular systems is developed, offering important clues to understand basic properties of materials of interest for NLO and energy-harvesting applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large Quadratic Hyperpolarizabilities with Donor–Acceptor Polyenes Exhibiting Optimum Bond Length Alternation: Correlation Between Structure and Hyperpolarizability

Mireille Blanchard-Desce, +8 more
- 01 Jul 1997 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the reduction of the bond length alternation (BLA) in the polyenic chain has been investigated, and unprecedented quadratic hyperpolarizabilities (p) have been achieved (up to p(0) =I500 x 10-30esu) by reduction.
