Abstract: | The second hyperpolarizability (γ) of the one-dimensional H(4) model compound has been calculated at the full configuration interaction level to describe its relationships with the diradical characters y(i) the occupation numbers of the lowest unoccupied natural orbital (LUNO) + i] and the geometry. It is found that the system with intermediate y(0) ( = 0.527) and small y(1) ( = 0.178) exhibits the largest γ value enhanced by a factor of 9 compared to that of a nearly closed-shell H(4) analog (y(0) = 0.099, y(1) = 0.029)], where both the outer H-H distances are slightly larger than the inner one. These results provide a molecular design guideline for enhancing and controlling the third-order nonlinear optical properties of singlet multiradical linear molecular systems such as multiradical organic aggregates, supermolecular systems, and extended metal atom chains. |
