Abstract: | This paper investigates the third-order nonlinear optical properties
of two azo-nickel chelate compounds by the optical Kerr gate method
at 830\,nm wavelength with pulse duration of 120\,fs. Both of the two
compounds exhibited large third-order optical nonlinearity. The
second-order hyperpolarizability, $\gamma$, of Compound 1 is of
$1.0\times 10^{ - 31}$\,esu. Due to the charge transfer, the $\gamma$
of Compound 2 with electron donor and acceptor group is
$4.9\times10^{ - 31}$\,esu, which is a four-time enhancement in
comparison with Compound 1. The absorption spectra show that the
electron push--pull effect, which induces intramolecular charge
transfer, leads to the increased optical nonlinearity. |
