Abstract
Resonance hyper-Raman spectra have been obtained using 1064 nm excitation for several electron donor-acceptor-substituted, pi-conjugated "push-pull" molecules that have large second harmonic hyperpolarizabilities. The hyper-Raman spectra are nearly identical to the resonance Raman spectra measured with 532 nm excitation. This indicates that both the second harmonic hyperpolarizability and the linear absorption are dominated by the same, single electronic transition that is both one- and two-photon allowed. Comparison of resonance Raman and resonance hyper-Raman spectra is proposed as an experimental test of the common two-electronic-state model for the first hyperpolarizability.
