ChemInform Abstract: Organic Materials for Non-Linear Optics: The 2D Approach

2010

Conventional organic molecules for applications in second-order non-linear optics are donor–acceptor substituted π systems that show only one intense charge-transfer (CT) transition. Thus, only a single element of the second-order polarizability tensor, β, is significant in these one-dimensional systems. The advantages and optimization strategies for two new classes of molecules with multiple CT transitions and two-dimensional second-order polarizability are reviewed. These are donor–acceptor substituted π systems that lack a dipole and have a molecular symmetry of C3 or higher, and dipolar molecules of symmetry C2v. A basic introduction to the field is also given.

Mutual capture of dipolar molecules at low and very low energies. II. Numerical study.

2011

The low-energy rate coefficients of capture of two identical dipolar polarizable rigid rotors in their lowest nonresonant (j(1) = 0 and j(2) = 0) and resonant (j(1) = 0, 1 and j(2) = 1, 0) states are calculated accurately within the close-coupling (CC) approach. The convergence of the quantum rate coefficients to their quantum-classical counterparts is studied. A comparison of the present accurate numerical with approximate analytical results (Nikitin, E. E.; Troe, J. J. Phys. Chem. A 2010, 114, 9762) indicates a good performance of the previous approach which was based on the interpolation between s-wave fly wheel quantal and all-wave classical adiabatic channel limits. The results obtaine…

<title>Electro-optical and fluorescence lifetime studies of aminophthalimide probes in liquids</title>

1995

The modified electro-optical absorption and emission methods are described as well as their use for measurements of electrical dipole moments of five aminophthalimides in ground and excited states. It is found that there exists a principal difference between properties of 3- aminophthalimide (3AP) and 4-amino-N-methylphthalimide (4ANMP) in different solvents. The equilibrated dipole moment of 3AP in its excited state is practically independent on the solvent polarity, in comparison with 4ANMP. The possible mechanism of this effect is discussed.© (1995) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering. Downloading of the abstract is permitted for personal use only.

Elektrooptische Emissionsuntersuchungen, III. Das Dipolmoment von trans-p-Dimethylamino-p′-nitrostilben im ersten angeregten Singulettzustand

1977

Aus elektrooptischen Emissions- und Absorptionsuntersuchungen in flussigen und glasig erstarrten Losungen kombiniert mit dielektrischen Untersuchungen konnten u. a. das Dipolmoment und die Polarisierbarkeitskomponente in Richtung des Dipolmoments von trans-p-Dimethylamino-p′-nitrostilben (DMANS) im ersten angeregten Singulettzustand bestimmt werden zu μ0a = (63 ± 5) · 10−30 Cm und α0az = (442 ± 65) · 10−40 CV−1 m2. Es zeigte sich, das die elektrooptischen Absorptions- und Emissionsuntersuchungen an DMANS in unpolaren Losungen zu einem konsistenten Satz von Dipolmomenten fuhren, das also die Aquilibrierung mit der Umgebung nach Anre-gung im unpolaren Cyclohexan keinen Einflus auf das permane…

Spectral and electrooptical absorption and emission studies on internally hydrogen bonded benzoxazole `double' derivatives: 2,5-bis(benzoxazolyl)hydr…

1999

Abstract Ground and excited state dipole moments and polarizabilities of 2,5-bis(benzoxazolyl)hydroquinone (BBHQ) and 3,6-bis(benzoxazolyl)pyrocatechol (BBPC) are determined by means of electrooptical absorption and emission measurements. BBHQ is found to exhibit a small, while BBPC a large increase of the static polarizability in the Franck–Condon (FC) excited singlet state. The change of the dipole moments upon excitation to the FC state is zero within experimental error. However, both molecules show dipole moments in the fluorescent states of their phototautomers, of about 5 D, the major component being parallel to the long molecular axis. The experimental and theoretical results strongl…

Measurements of the Generalized Electric and Magnetic Polarizabilities of the Proton at LowQ2Using the Virtual-Compton-Scattering Reaction

2006

Experimental details of a virtual Compton scattering (VCS) experiment performed on the proton at the MIT-Bates out-of-plane scattering facility are presented. The VCS response functions ${P}_{LL}\ensuremath{-}{P}_{TT}/\phantom{{P}_{TT}\ensuremath{\varepsilon}}\ensuremath{\varepsilon}$ and ${P}_{LT}$ have been measured at ${Q}^{2}=0.057\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}{\mathrm{GeV}}^{2}/{c}^{2}$. The generalized electric and magnetic polarizabilities, $\ensuremath{\alpha}({Q}^{2})$ and $\ensuremath{\beta}({Q}^{2})$, and the mean-square electric polarizability radius$\ensuremath{\langle}{r}_{\ensuremath{\alpha}}^{2}\ensuremath{\rangle}$ are obtained from a dispersion analysis of the data. The resu…

Electromagnetic field fluctuations near a dielectric-vacuum boundary and surface divergences in the ideal conductor limit

2012

We consider the electric and magnetic field fluctuations in the vacuum state in the region external to a half-space filled with a homogeneous non-dissipative dielectric. We discuss an appropriate limit to an ideal metal and concentrate our interest on the renormalized field fluctuations, or equivalently to renormalized electric and magnetic energy densities, in the proximity of the dielectric-vacuum interface. We show that surface divergences of field fluctuations arise at the interface in an appropriate ideal conductor limit, and that our limiting procedure allows to discuss in detail their structure. Field fluctuations close to the surface can be investigated through the retarded Casimir-…

Van der Waals Interactions in a Magneto-Dielectric Medium

2007

The van der Waals interaction between two ground-state atoms is calculated for two electrically or magnetically polarizable particles embedded in a dispersive magneto-dielectric medium. Unlike previous calculations which infer the atom-atom interaction from the dilute-medium limit of the macroscopic, many-body van der Waals interaction, the interaction is calculated directly for the system of two atoms in a magneto-dielectric medium. Two approaches are presented, the first based on the quantized electromagnetic field in a dispersive medium without absorption and the second on Green functions that allow for absorption. We show that the correct van der Waals interactions are obtained regardle…

Theoretical Multipolar Atom Model Transfer in Nitro-Derivatives of N-Methylaniline

2014

The nitroanilines are an example of compounds in which the coexistence of electron-rich and electron-deficient substituents, connected through a conjugated π-electronic system, makes their molecular second-order hyperpolarizability and second-harmonic generation efficiency particularly high. This property makes them extremely interesting from the point of view of charge density distribution analysis. The electron density of three isomeric molecules, i.e., N-methyl-2-nitroaniline, N-methyl-3-nitroaniline, and N-methyl-4-nitroaniline, was calculated theoretically through the multipolar atom model transfer. Two types of refinement models, i.e., multipolar atom model (MAM) and independent atom …
