Linear and Nonlinear Optical Properties of Novel Multi-branched Oligomers

We investigate the fluorene-vinylene unit dependent photo-physical properties of multi-branched truxene based oligomers (Tr-OFV_n, n=1-4) employing steady-state absorption and emission spectroscopy, transient absorption spectroscopy, two-photon fluorescence, and z-scan technique. The results show that the increasing of fluorene-vinylene unit leads to a red-shift in the spectra of absorption and fluorescence, and shortens the excited state lifetime. Meanwhile, two-photon fluorescence efficiency and two-photon absorption cross section of truxene based oligomers gradually enhance in company with the extension of π-conjugated length. In addition, the values of two-photon absorption cross section modeled on the sum-over-state approach agree well with the experimental ones. The results indicate multi-branched truxene based oligomers bearing oligo(fluorene-vinylene) arms are promisingorganic materials for two-photon applications.     

Synthesis and two-photon absorption properties of multi-branched styryl derivatives containing π-bond and σ-electron pair as bridge based on 1,3,5-triazine

A series of new one, two, and three-branched two-photon absorption triazine derivatives with a π-bond and a σ-electron pair as a bridge have been synthesized and their photophysical properties have been systematically investigated. These chromophores showed obvious solvatochromic effects, i.e., significant bathochromic shifting of the emission spectra and larger Stokes shifts were observed in more polar solvents mainly due to intra-molecular charge transfer (ICT). The two-photon absorption (2PA) cross-section values were determined by the two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) measurements in DMF. This result further proved that a σ-electron pair as a bridge is an efficient way to transfer charge as well as a π bridge, and that their 2PA cross-section values (δ) increase with increasing branch number.     

Trivalent boron as an acceptor in donor-pi-acceptor-type compounds for single- and two-photon excited fluorescence

The synthesis, structure, and fluorescence properties of a series of new donor-pi-acceptor (D-pi-A) type compounds, with a trivalent boron, protected by two mesityl groups, as acceptor, and with various typical donors and different pi-conjugated bridges, are reported. All these stable organoboron compounds show intense single-photon excited fluorescence (SPEF) and two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) in a wide spectral range from blue to green, with the spectral peak position of the SPEF being basically the same as that of the TPEF. The remarkably strong Cbond;B(mesityl)(2) bonding, and the well-conjugated pi-system, shown in X-ray crystal structures of two compounds, indicate some charge transfer features of the ground state. Meanwhile, spectral data indicate that the charge transfer from donor to acceptor is greatly enhanced in the excited states. Based on typical structural data and comprehensive spectral data, the following structure-property relationships can be drawn: 1) the moderate arylamino donor can more effectively enhance the SPEF and TPEF intensities than can the strong alkylamino donor; 2) stilbene is a better pi-bridge than styrylthiophene for its capability of enhancing and blue-shifting the SPEF and TPEF of the corresponding D-pi-A compounds; and 3) when compared to its boron-free precursors and other analogues, -B(mesityl)(2) invariably and consistently acts as an effective SPEF and TPEF fluorophore in all this series of organoboron compounds, which may result from its strong pi-electron-withdrawing and charge transfer-inducing nature in the ground-state and, more dominantly, in the excited-state. Combining all the above positive structure factors, trans-4'-N,N-diphenylamino-4-dimesitylborylstilbene (compound 3) stands out as the optimized green SPEF and TPEF emitter. This compound exhibits an SPEF quantum yield Phi of 0.91 at 522 nm in THF, a TPEF cross-section sigma' that is an order of magnitude larger than that of its boron-free precursor upon excitation by 800 nm femto-second laser pulses, and a two-photon absorption section sigma of 3.0 x 10(-48) cm(4) s. In the blue light region, trans-4'-N-carbazolyl-4-dimesitylboryl-stilbene (compound 4) shows significant SPEF and TPEF properties, with Phi=0.79 at 464 nm in THF and a large sigma' value, which is five times that of fluorescein upon excitation by 740 nm femto-second laser pulses.

Synthesis of two carbazole-based dyes and application of two-photon initiating polymerization

Two carbazole-based polymerization initiators possessing blue fluorescence emission have been synthesized via Wittig reaction in the solid phase at room temperature.

Then two-photon initiating polymerization (TPIP) microfabrication experiments were successfully carried out. Three-dimensional lattice and artificial defects were gained, indicating that they were viable candidates for the two-photon polymerization initiator in practical application of microfabrication.
