Abstract
The conjugation length-dependent nonlinear optical properties of fluorenone-based linear conjugated oligomers have been investigated by experimental and theoretical methods. Infrared spectra and the steady-state absorption spectra show that the increase of conjugated unit could enhance the stretching vibration peaks of C=C and lead to a red-shift of the absorption peaks. Meanwhile, the two-photon fluorescence (TPF) intensity is gradually enhanced with the increase of excitation energy, and the TPF efficiency is obviously higher after the introduction of fluorene-ethylene units. The sum-over-states approach was used to model the two-photon absorption (TPA) cross-sections of oligomers, and the theoretical values agree well with the experimental data obtained from the femtosecond open-aperture z-scan technique. The results exhibit that the extension of conjugated system indeed plays a role in the improvement of TPA behavior of oligomers.
