摘要: We have investigated the nonlinear optical properties, limiting thresholds, and figures of merits for five different phthalocyanine thin films, achieved through doping in PMMA polymer, using Z-scan technique at 800 nm with 2 ps laser pulse excitation. From open-aperture data we derived that these molecules exhibit strong two photon absorption (2PA) coefficients range 15 - 200 cm/GW. also estimated sign magnitude real part third order nonlinearity closed aperture data. Preliminary femtosecond pump-probe suggests lifetimes excited states are sub-100 regime all film form. Our studies provide concrete evidence phthalocyanines prospective candidates multi-photon imaging applications.
