Abstract

A new dye Trans-4-[p-(N-hydroxyethyl-N-ethyiamino)styryl]-N-methylpyridinium p-toluene sulfonate (HEASPS) was synthesized, and the two-photon absorption (TPA), TPA-induced frequency up-conversion emission, and two-photon pumped (TPP) frequency up-converted lasing properties of this new dye were experimentally studied. This new dye has a moderate TPA cross-section of\\sigma2 = 4.7 × 10−48 cm4 .s/photon at 1064nm, but exhibits a high lasing efficiency. The net conversion efficiency from the absorbed 1064 nm pump pulse energy to the 626 nm up-converted lasing energy is 18.2% at the pump energy level of 1.9 mJ.
