有机电光晶体4-(4-二甲基氨基苯乙烯基)甲基吡啶对甲基苯磺酸盐的太赫兹光谱研究

采用色散校正的密度泛函理论(dispersion-corrected density functional theory,DFT-D2)对有机电光晶体4-(4-二甲基氨基苯乙烯基)甲基吡啶对甲基苯磺酸盐(4-N,N-dimethylamino-4′-N′-methyl-stilbazolium tosylate,DAST)进行结构优化和太赫兹光谱计算,通过逐步提高精度进行几何优化的方法寻找DAST收敛的基态稳定结构,获得与DAST初始结构相一致的基态稳定结构.在此结构的基础上,在0—4 THz范围的太赫兹计算光谱与实验测量结果一致,说明采用DFT-D2进行优化的合理性.重要的是,首次通过计算的太赫兹光谱对DAST在0—4 THz范围的太赫兹吸收峰的振动模式进行了详细归属.结果表明:1.12 THz处的振动是DAST阴阳离子的光学声子模式,1.46 THz和1.54 THz两处的振动主要与磺酸盐有关,而2.63 THz和3.16 THz两处的振动则分别源于阳离子的扭转振动和阴离子的转动.该结果不仅很好地说明了阴阳离子分别在太赫兹响应中的贡献,而且为今后通过取代阴阳离子基团获取具有更高二阶非线性效应的DAST衍生物的新合成提供了重要的参考和指导.本文结果说明密度泛函理论在太赫兹光子学上的重要应用,对探究有机电光晶体的太赫兹响应物理原理、性能控制等具有重要的指导价值.

On the synthesis of AlPO4-21 molecular sieve by vapor phase transport method and its phase transformation to AlPO4-15 molecular sieve

An experimental design was applied to the synthesis of AlPO₄-21 molecular sieve (AWO structure) by vapor phase transport (VPT) method, using tetramethylguanidine (TMG) as the template. In this study, the effects of crystallization time, crystallization temperature, phosphor content, template content and water content in the synthesis gel were investigated. The materials obtained were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Microstructural analysis of the crystal growth in vapor synthetic conditions revealed a revised crystal growth route from zeolite AlPO₄-21 to AlPO₄-15 in the presence of the TMG. Homogenous hexagonal prism AlPO₄-21 crystals with size of 7 × 3 μm were synthesized at a lower temperature (120 °C), which were completely different from the typical tabular parallelogram crystallization microstructure of AlPO₄-21 phase. The crystals were transformed into AlPO₄-21 phase with higher crystallization temperature, longer crystallization time, higher P₂O₅/Al₂O₃ ratio and higher TMG/Al₂O₃ ratio.     

Difference-frequency terahertz-wave generation from 4-dimethylamino-N-methyl-4-stilbazolium-tosylate by use of an electronically tuned Ti:sapphire laser

Among nonlinear materials, the organic ionic salt crystal 4-dimethylamino- N -methyl-4-stilbazolium-tosylate (DAST) is known for its large nonlinearity. We generated a coherent terahertz (THz) wave, using DAST, from the difference frequency between two oscillating wavelengths of an electronically tuned Ti:sapphire laser. In LiNbO(3), LiTaO(3), KTiOPO(4), and GaP crystals, THz-wave generation was not observed under the same experimental conditions. This result proves the high efficiency of DAST crystals for generation of difference-frequency THz waves.     

Widely tunable broadband terahertz radiation generation using a configurationally locked polyene 2-[3-(4-hydroxystyryl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-enylidene] malononitrile crystal via difference frequency generation

Widely tunable terahertz (THz) waves were successfully generated from 0.5 to 10 THz via difference frequency generation (DFG) in a configurationally locked polyene 2-[3-(4-hydroxystyryl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-enylidene] malononitrile (OH1) crystal. Potassium titanium oxide phosphate optical parametric oscillator pumped by nanosecond Q-switched Nd:YAG laser was used to generate two waves, which were then used to irradiate OH1 crystal. The maximum energy of the generated THz wave was about 461 pJ/pulse. We investigated the dependency of generated THz energy to the excitation pump power density and OH1 crystal thickness. In addition, we compared the THz energy generated by OH1 crystal to 4-N,N-dimethylamino-4′-N′-methyl-4-stilbazolium tosylate (DAST) crystal using DFG, and we achieved 560 times higher energy using OH1 crystal than DAST crystal at around 1.1 THz.     

Is 1-(4-fluorostyryl)-4-nitrostilbene a novel nonlinear optical crystal?

Many details including the reaction scheme of crystal synthesis in a recent paper reporting optical and mechanical properties of 1-(4-fluorostyryl)-4-nitrostilbene (FNS) single crystal, by Dinakaran and Kalainathan (Optik, 2013 [1]), are very similar to those reported earlier by the same authors for another crystal namely 4-fluoro-4′-nitrostilbene (FONS). FNS is not a new NLO crystal but a new code for FONS with a different and obviously wrong chemical name. FNS crystal is a non-existent compound because substitution of a (4-fluorostyryl) moiety at the 1-position of 4-nitrostilbene will result in pentavalency for carbon.

Growth of 4-(dimethylamino) benzaldehyde doped triglycine sulphate single crystals and its characterization

Single crystals of triglycine sulphate (TGS) doped with 1 mol% of 4-(dimethylamino) benzaldehyde (DB) have been grown from aqueous solution at ambient temperature by slow evaporation technique. The effect of dopant on the crystal growth and dielectric, pyroelectric and mechanical properties of TGS crystal have been investigated. X-ray powder diffraction pattern for pure and doped TGS was collected to determine the lattice parameters. FTIR spectra were employed to confirm the presence of 4-(dimethylamino) benzaldehyde in TGS crystal, qualitatively. The dielectric permittivity has been studied as a function of temperature by cooling the sample at a rate of 1 °C/min. An increase in the Curie temperature T_c=51 °C (for pure TGS, T_c=48.5 °C) and decrease in maximum permittivity has been observed for doped TGS when compared to pure TGS crystal. Pyroelectric studies on doped TGS were carried out to determine pyroelectric coefficient. The Vickers's hardness of the doped TGS crystals along (0 1 0) face is higher than that of pure TGS crystal for the same face. Domain patterns on b-cut plates were observed using scanning electron microscope. The low dielectric constant, higher pyroelectric coefficient and higher value of hardness suggest that doped TGS crystals could be a potential material for IR detectors.
