Description:
Based on results of quantum chemical (QC) screening, we put under research several phenylamine indane-1,3-dione derivatives including octupolar NLO chromophore A3BI. According to these calculations, molecular first hyperpolarizability (β HRS ) should be enhanced upon replacement of methyl substituents with phenyl groups. Surprisingly, β HRS values obtained in our measurements by hyper-Rayleigh scattering (HRS) are much higher than one could expect from QC. Bearing in mind that two-photon luminescence (TPL) is usual cause for overestimation of β HRS in HRS measurements, we have accomplished investigations of TPL properties of these compounds. All investigated triphenylamine derivatives exhibit strong TPL. In case of DANS and DMABI captured simultaneously, TPL spectra and HRS signal, reveal the least as clearly distinct on TPL background, thus TPL-free β HRS values can be defined. Concurrently, sharp HRS signal of DPABI is sinking in TPL and ...
