<title>Nonlinear optical properties of some indandione-1,3 pyridinium betaine derivatives</title>

1997

In this paper nonlinear optical properties of indandione-1,3 pyridinium betaine (IPB) molecule and its novel amphiphilic derivatives have been studied. Hyper-Rayleigh scattering (HRS) has been used as a direct and accurate tool to determine effective hyperpolarizability (beta) of IPB derivatives dissolved in chloroform. Evaluation of hyperpolarizability gives an averaged values of (beta) from 140 multiplied by 10-30 to 450 multiplied by 10-30 esu. Disordering of molecular orientation for multilayer Langmuir-Blodgett films of compound C17-IPB has been studied by SHG techniques and discussed for different film thickness. It has been observed that orientation degree of the Z-type molecular str…

ChemInform Abstract: Preparation and Nonlinear Optics of Monodisperse Oligo(1,4-phenyleneethynylene)s.

2010

Oligo(1,4-phenyleneethynylene)s 1a−e, with solubilizing propoxy side chains, were prepared by use of Hagihara−Sonogashira coupling reactions. The synthetic strategy was based on a building block system and on the use of trimethylsilyl and triisopropylsilyl protecting groups that could be cleaved selectively. The extension of the conjugation with an increasing number of repeat units provokes a bathochromic shift of the long wavelength absorption and a superlinear increase of the second hyperpolarizability |γ|. The corresponding third harmonic generation (THG) measurements were performed using polystyrene matrices and variable laser wavelengths. We conclude that the conjugation length is much…

An improved molecular design of obtaining NLO active molecular glasses using triphenyl moieties as amorphous phase formation enhancers

2012

New molecular design of obtaining molecular glasses has been developed by linking triphenylmethyl moieties to chromophore core by flexible C-C bridge. Compounds capable of forming stable amorphous phase with good optical quality have been acquired with increased chemical and thermal sustainability compared to the previously reported design. NLO activity of compounds has been measured after corona discharge polling. Compared to previously synthesized trityloxy fragment containing compounds increase of d 33 coefficient by up to 17 times was achieved for the same chromophore core containing compounds.

Macrocycles as Molecular Units to Build up Electroresponsive Materials: A Comparative Theoretical Investigation of the Electronic and Optical Propert…

1990

Besides their classical and well-known applications as, e.g., dyes, pigments, catalysts, etc. [1], phthalocyanines (Pc’s) have been of particular interest in many fields of basic and applied research concerning solar cells [2], photosensitizers [3], low dimensional metals [4], gas sensors [5], electrochromism [6], Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films [7], and nonlinear optics [8]. As an example, gas sensors [9], electronic devices [10], laser recording materials [11], and photovoltaic cells [12] can now be built from LB films of phthalocyanines. This great variety of interesting applications results from a number of unique properties that phthalocyanines exhibit On the one hand, they show an except…

Random quasi-phase-matched second harmonic generation in periodically poled lithium tantalate

2009

We experimentally observed and explained bulk second harmonic generation via random quasi-phase-matching, derived from a periodically poled lithium tantalate sample with a randomly patterned mark-to-space-ratio.

Simple models for nonlinear states of double-helix DNA

2006

Review type introduction is given to the simple modeling of DNA. Intrinsically simple modeling aims at understanding or explaining of some “core” phenomena, not giving any all-embracing model of the underlying system. As a consequence the amount of this type of models and their versions is large. Here we have restricted our contemplation to the most important lines in the path of theoretical understanding of DNA melting or denaturation which is one of the important phases occurring during DNAs replication and transcription processes. The model “line” initiated by Peyrard and Bishop shows the richness these simple models can have.

Science, Its Publics and New Media. Reflecting on the Present and Future of Science Communication.

2013

Scientific journalism faces the challenge to adapt not only to new formats but also to new information exchange dynamics. New online platforms, making it easier to access and produce scientific content, are forcing science publics to evolve. The online environment has turned into science communication reality, and both scientists and communicators must adapt to it. This paper discusses these changes and their implications for science journalism and an informed citizenry.

La protección del usuario en el juego online

2022

En los últimos años se ha producido un impresionante auge de las actividades relacionadas con el contrato de juego y apuesta, especialmente en la modalidad online. En la oferta masiva de juegos, las empresas comercializan la participación y son ellas las que diseñan y estructuran las ganancias y pérdidas, limitándose los participantes (consumidores), simplemente a adherirse a la oferta. La mecánica de estos contratos de adhesión, a largo plazo, solo beneficia a los operadores de juegos de azar, situando a los participantes en una situación de desequilibrio respecto al operador. Por todo lo expuesto, es necesario aspirar a una normativa integral para que los operadores en sus actuaciones y e…

Solid-state-biased coherent detection of ultra-broadband terahertz pulses

2017

Significant progress in nonlinear and ultrafast optics has recently opened new and exciting opportunities for terahertz (THz) science and technology, which require the development of reliable THz sources, detectors, and supporting devices. In this work, we demonstrate the first solid-state technique for the coherent detection of ultra-broadband THz pulses (0.1-10 THz), relying on the electric-field-induced second-harmonic generation in a thin layer of ultraviolet fused silica. The proposed CMOS-compatible devices, which can be realized with standard microfabrication techniques, allow us to perform ultra-broadband detection with a high dynamic range by employing probe laser powers and bias v…
