Abstract

An FT-IR spectrometer and a UV–Visible spectrometer were utilised in order to characterise the Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside chloride (C3OC) dye. The dye’s thermally induced optical nonlinearity was measured in a dimethylformamide solvent using an adjustable diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) laser at 473 nm. The optical response was measured using the Z-scan technique. The dye showed negative and large nonlinear refractive index) NRX) values, with high nonlinear absorption coefficients (NBO). Because of its ability to change with concentration, the NRX is a viable candidate for applications in the field of nonlinear optics. Thermal lens (THS) technique was used to investigate thermo-optical properties and the NRX. The optical limiter capabilities of the C3OC dye are being investigated as a potential use.
