摘要: The optical nonlinearity of (TBA)2Ni(dmit)2 (TBA = tert-n-butanyl-amonimium, dmit 1,3-dithiol-2-thione-4,5-dithiolate) at high incident irradiance was investigated using Z-scan technique with 1064 nm picosecond laser pulses. This molecule shows a strong absorption band ranging from 900 to 1600 nm. Under excitation by 1064nm pulses, this exhibits typical saturable-absorption (SA) due transition, and negative third-order contribution nonlinear refraction (NLR). result indicates that it self-defocusing. In addition, positive fifth-order NLR, the influences aggregation excited-state on were also observed in molecule.
