Abstract

The optical properties of titanylphthalocyanine (TiOPc) thin film fabricated by physical jet deposition technique were investigated by using absorption, femtosecond (fs) optical Kerr effect (OKE) and fs pump–probe techniques. The third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility of TiOPc film was measured to be 3×10 −10 esu. The OKE response of TiOPc films shows a decay process with subpicosecond time constant, demonstrating that the excited state of TiOPc molecule has little contribution to the photo-induced birefringence. From the fs pump–probe experiment, a complicated decay behavior with three decay components was observed, which originates from the contribution of exciton–exciton annihilation process, the enhanced intersystem crossing process and the relaxation of the triplet state.
