    Azo-azulene derivatives for nonlinear optical applications

    Get PDF
    Organic materials are of high interest and are widely used for the development of new powerful and low dimensional technologies. They exhibit several advantages with respect to inorganic compounds such as large cubic and quadratic optical nonlinearities, flexibility, easy manufacturing and so on. Among them, some present abilities for photonic or nonlinear optical applications. Intensive researches have been performed these latest decades to synthesize highly efficient and optically active molecules because of the miniaturization of optoelectronic devices. Azo-azulene derivatives are an interesting class of organic molecules for potential applications in optoelectronics and optical data storage due to their polyfunctional properties. We discuss second and third order nonlinear optical properties of a series of azo-azulene compounds in solid state. Thin films were prepared by incorporating these molecules in a polymethylmetacrylate (PMMA) matrix and were investigated. Moreover, potential usage of these guest-host systems for optical data storage is also discussed

    This chapter will discuss none-invasive techniques that are widely used to study protein-protein interactions. As an example, their application in exploring interactions between proteins involved in bacterial cell division will be evaluated. First, bacterial morphology and cell division of the rod-shaped bacterium Escherichia coli will be introduced. Next, three bacterial two-hybrid methods and three Förster resonance energy transfer detection methods that are frequently applied to detect interactions between proteins will be described and discussed in detail. The chapter concludes with a discussion about the application and results of the techniques when studying proteins involved in cell division

    Photoinduced Gratings in Functionalized Azo-Carbazole Compounds in Picosecond Regime

    Get PDF
    We report results of diffraction grating inscription on thin films prepared from epoxy resin doped with azo-carbazole based dyes. Diffraction gratings were recorded at the wavelength 532 nm and monitored through intensity of first order of diffraction (632 nm). Atomic force microscope scans of the gratings show that a surface relief grating also appeared

    Experimental and theoretical studies of NLO properties of organic–inorganic materials base on p-nitroaniline

    Third order nonlinear optical properties of a serie of chromophores were investigated using nonlinear transmission (NLT), degenerate four waves mixing (DFWM) and third harmonic generation (THG) experiments. The investigations are completed by theoritical studies performed using quantum chemical semi empirical calculations. Theoretical calculation of UV–VIS spectra and second order molecular hyperpolarisabillity for organic–inorganic hybrid materials base on p-nitroalinine was presented. Third order nonlinear optical susceptibility of the studied compounds was evaluated using third harmonic generation (THG) set up at 1064 nm. The measurements were performed on thin films, deposited on a thick glass substrate
