级联三能级介质中非线性光学信号的增强

揭示非最大相干可能比最大相干产生更有效的非线性频率转换. 为此以三能级级联系统(没有最大相干)为例计算其非线性光学信号的强度, 并与三能级Λ型系统(具有最大相干)进行比较. 利用非微扰方法计算表明, 在双光子共振和相同参数的条件下, 级联系统产生的非线性光学信号的最大强度约是Λ系统的两倍. 利用缀饰态表象分析表明, 两个系统中耦合跃迁的自发辐射及其介入的不可逆三光子过程具有相反的作用. 它们在级联系统中加强非线性转换, 而在Λ系统中削弱非线性转换. 关键词： 电磁感应透明 非线性光学过程 双光子共振

薄原子蒸汽膜的双光子光谱及Dicke窄化

薄原子蒸汽膜的单光子Dcike窄化吸收光谱可以拓展到双光子情形，以级联三能级系统为例,从理论上得到了亚多普勒结构的双光子吸收光谱，其线型表现出和单光子过程相似的与膜厚和探测光波长的比值(L/λ)相关的周期性.当L/λ=(2n+1)/2(膜厚为半波长的奇数倍)时，吸收谱线窄化现象明显.当L/λ=2n/2(膜厚为半波长的偶数倍)时，单光子情形的谱线窄化现象消失，而双光子情形的谱线仍表现为亚多普勒结构，尤其在异侧入射的情形下，可以获得极窄的双光子谱线结构. 这种结构来自原子与腔壁碰撞的消激发效应和双光子过程的抽运-探测机制的贡献. 关键词： 薄原子蒸汽膜 双光子光谱 Dicke窄化

Structure and Two-photon Excited Blue Fluorescence of an Asymmetrical Substituted Stilbene

In common fluorescence process, molecular excitation is caused by the absorption of at least a single photon with shorter wavelength. When certain laser is used as the pump source, some compounds can be excited by simultaneous absorption of at least two photons and then the emission of up-converted fluorescence may occur. This process is called two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF)1,2. Because of several advantages of TPEF, including intrinsic high three-dimensional resolution and the p…     

Synthesis, Characterization and Two-Photon Absorption Properties of a Novel Pyridinium Salt

A novel pyridinium salt, 2,4-bis[p-(N,N-dimethylamino)styryll-N-metlayl pyridinium iodide (BMSPI) was synthesized and characterized by TG, ^1H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis, and the reaction process was studied by using ES-MS. When BMSPI was pumped by a pulsed 1064 nm, 50 ps laser beam, it manifests highly efficient TPA (Two-Photon Absorption) and up-conversion superradiance. The up-conversion efficiency was 6.0% at the pump energy of 4-6 mJ and the lifetime of two-photon fluorescence was measured as 59 ps.     

Two-photon Dissociation Study of Carbon Disulfide in Acetonitrile at 266 nm

Using laser flash photolysis/transient absorption technique for the study of two photon photodissociation of carbon disulfide in acetonitrile solution at 266 nm, the transient UV-Vis absorption spectrum of Rydberg state CS2 （6sσg） within 240-370 nm and subsequent dissociation product CS （α^3П） with the maximum absorption at 260 nm were directly observed. The lifetime of CS （α^3П） in the nitrogen and oxygen saturated solution is also studied in our experiment.     

Dynamics of phase transitions in a liquid crystal probed by Raman spectroscopy

Raman spectra of the Schiff 's base liquid crystalline compound 5O5, N-(4- n-pentyloxybenzylidene)-4'-n-pentylaniline, have been recorded as a function of temperature from 22 to 80°C in the 1140-1220 cm^-1 and 1550-1640 cm^-1 spectral regions. From careful deconvolution of the spectral features using Lorentzian profiles, precise values of peak positions, integrated intensities and linewidths of some selected Raman bands were obtained. The variations of the Raman spectral parameters with temperature are discussed in terms of changes in the molecular alignment and its effect on intra-/inter-molecular interactions at the Cr-G, G-SmF, SmF-SmC and SmA-N phase transitions. From a detailed study, it is inferred that the increased orientational/vibrational freedom of the alkyl chains, as well as the delocalization of the electron clouds, is responsible for the spectral anomalies at the Cr-G transition. Loss of positional ordering and twist around the -C₆H₄-N= bond takes place at the SmF-SmC transition. In the SmA-N transition, some evidence for the formation of cybotactic clusters was obtained.     

Two-Photon-Induced CO-Releasing Molecules as Molecular Logic Systems in Solution,Polymers, and Cells

Phototherapeutic applications of carbon monoxide (CO)-releasing molecules are limited because they require harmful UV and blue light for activation. We describe two-photon excitation with NIR light (800 nm)-induced CO-release from two Mn^I tricarbonyl complexes bearing 1,8-naphthalimide units ( 1 , 2 ). Complex 2 behaves as a logic OR gate in solution, nonwovens, and in HeLa cells. CO release, indicated by fluorescence enhancement, was detected in solution, nonwoven, and HeLa cells by single- (405 nm) and two-photon (800 nm) excitation. The photophysical properties of 1 and 2 have been measured and supported by DFT and TDDFT quantum chemical calculations. Both photoCORMs are stable in the dark in solution and noncytotoxic, leading to promising applications as phototherapeutics with NIR light.     

Two-Photon Absorption and Cell Imaging of Fluorene-Functionalized Epicocconone Analogues

Epicocconone 1 is a natural chromophore isolated from the fungus Epicoccum nigrum that has shown applications in proteomics and fluorescent microscopy thanks to its unique pro-fluorescence properties. The modification of the skeleton of the natural product by replacing the triene side chain by a fluorenyl scaffold can noticeably increase the fluorophore's absorption coefficient. The synthesis of the analogues of the natural product has been made possible by the use of a palladium-catalyzed carbonylation reaction, allowing the construction of the β-keto-dioxinone key intermediate. Two-photon absorption cross-section measurements of the fluorenyl epicocconone analogues show a structure dependency with values ranging from 60 to 280 GM and live cell imaging show intense staining of intracellular vesicle-like structures around the nucleus.
