Abstract
Femtosecond time-resolved transient absorption (TA) spectra study was adopted to study the mechanism of the cooperative enhancement of two-photon absorption (TPA) cross section from the linear structure 1,4-di(4′-N,N-diphenylaminostyryl)benzene (DPA-DSB) to its cruciform double-chain dimer DPA-TSB. The results suggested that a non-emissive intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT) state, ICT’, was present upon excitation in the dimer, which was absent in the monomer. The existence of this non-emissive state, indicating the enhancement of the intramolecular charge-transfer of the dimer, should be the reason for the cooperative enhancement of the TPA cross section of the dimer compared to the monomer.
