Abstract

We introduce the principle and applications of one-photon absorption (OPA) and two-photon absorption (TPA) controlled by external electric fields. The physical mechanism of OPA and TPA are firstly introduced, which can visually promote thoroughly understanding of principle and physical analysis. Secondly, the applications of different molecules in OPA and TPA with and without external electric field are introduced in detail. The effect of the external electric field on the charge transfer during the absorption process is also exemplified. Furthermore, the external electric field on the molecular orbital wave function is visualized through the charge transfer process in the excited state transitions. The purpose of this review is to deepen the understanding of the types of charge transfer under linear and non-linear absorption in different systems.
