- In the area of nonlinear optics, organic multi-chromophore systems such as carbon networks composed of repeat building block molecules have been utilized for two-photon absorption (TPA) effects ,which may have applications in optical limiting, imaging, and photodynamic therapy.
- We analyze the determining factor which governs the magnitude of the cross section of these systems.
- I’m investigating two samples with a wide range of molecular symmetries so as to figure out a new avenue toward increasing the two-photon cross section with identical building block chromophores.
