Abstract
Focusing on innovative high-performance single-pole double-throw nonlinear optical (NLO) molecular switches, two C3v configurations (1 and 3) and one D3h configuration (2) of bipyramidal CaN3Ca have been obtained by using quantum mechanical methods. Not only are 1, 2, and 3 alkaline-earth-based aromatic superalkalis, but they are also interesting electrides. The salt-like electronic structures of e-Ca2+N33-Ca2+ (1) and Ca2+N33-Ca2+e- (3) with localized redox centres are rare inorganic Robin-Day class II-type structures, and e0.5-Ca2+N33-Ca2+e0.5- (2) with a delocalized structure is a class III-type mixed-valent superalkali electride. Under a small external electric field of ±0.0110 a.u. (0.565 V Å-1), the short-distance hopping of Ca atoms in CaN3Ca from the D3h configuration with in-plane aromaticity to each C3v configuration with out-of-plane aromaticity brings about the long-range transfer of half an electron from one Ca atom to another. And, subsequently, a large dipole moment (μ0) and remarkable static first hyperpolarizability (β0) occur. μz and βzzz range from 0 (D3h, off form) to -12.1 or 12.1 D (C3v, on forms) and from 0 (D3h, off form) to -19 428 or 19 428 a.u. (C3v, on forms), respectively. These extremely large differences in μz and βzzz values between the D3h and each of the C3v configurations confirm the potential of these inorganic aromatic Robin-Day-type superalkali electrides for applications in high-sensitivity multi-state nonlinear optical switches.

Abstract
The switchable second-order nonlinear optical properties of a series of dithienylethene-containing boron compounds possessing reversible photochromic behavior have been systemically investigated based on density functional theory. The significant differences on the static first hyperpolarizabilities caused by the photoisomerization reaction confirm the switchable nonlinear optical behavior. Results show that the closed-ring 1c–4c possess large static first hyperpolarizabilitieswith respect to their corresponding open-ring 1o–4o, which is due to the better π-conjugation and a more obvious degree of charge transfer. Specifically, the static first hyperpolarizability values increase in the range of 2.4–5.2 times with the strengthening electron-withdrawing ability of the substituent R (R = H, CF3, NO2) on the pyridine and elongating the conjugated chains. It indicates that introducing boron-based functional groups to the dithienylethene monomer and modifying the pyridine ring can effectively improve the switching nonlinear optical responses.

Abstract
We report on the nonlinear optical properties measurements and quantum-chemical calculations of a well-known photochromic system consisting of spiropyran and the merocyanine photoproduct. The study of nonlinear absorption and refraction properties of the molecules dissolved in chloroform were performed with the Z-scan technique, using femtosecond pulses in a wide range of wavelengths. Maxima in the two-photon absorption spectrum at 700 and 1050 nm were found for the merocyanine form, and the corresponding two-photon absorption cross section is 80 GM and 20 GM, respectively. The latter feature does not vanish completely in the nonlinear spectrum of the spiropyran form, possibly because of the existence of some photoconversion caused by the laser beam during the measurements. A nonlinear absorption peak at 900 nm is found in the spiropyran form with an effective cross section of about 20 GM; it is likely due to three-photon absorption or to absorption by some intermediate species. The experimental data are supported by calculations performed with the use of a hybrid quantum mechanics-molecular mechanics approach.
