Abstract
A series of monocationic iridium(III) complexes, [Ir(C^N)2(pqu)]+PF6- [pqu = 2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinoline, C^N = 2-phenylquinoline (1), 3-phenylisoquinoline (2), 1-phenylisoquinoline (3), benzo[ h]quinoline (4), 2-(pyridin-2-yl)naphthalene (5), 1-(pyridin-2-yl)naphthalene (6), 2-(phenanthren-9-yl)pyridine (7), 2-phenylbenzo[ g]quinoline (8), 2-(naphthalen-2-yl)quinoline (9), and 2-(naphthalen-2-yl)benzo[ g]quinoline (10)], were synthesized in this work. These complexes bear C^N ligands with varied degrees of π conjugation and sites of benzannulation, allowing for elucidation of the effects of the benzannulation site at the C^N ligand on the photophysics of the complexes. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption and emission of the complexes were systematically investigated via spectroscopic techniques and time-dependent density functional theory calculations. Their triplet excited-state absorption and reverse saturable absorption (RSA) were studied by nanosecond transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy and nonlinear transmission techniques. The fusion of phenyl ring(s) to the phenyl ring or the 4 and 5 positions of the pyridyl ring of the C^N ligand resulted in red-shifted UV-vis absorption and emission spectra in complexes 2, 5-7, 9, and 10 compared to those of the parent complex 0, while their triplet lifetimes and emission quantum yields were significantly reduced. In contrast, the fusion of one phenyl ring to the other sites of the pyridyl group of the C^N ligand showed an insignificant impact on the energies of the lowest singlet (S1) and triplet (T1) excited states in complexes 1, 3, and 4 but noticeably affected their TA spectral features. The fusion of the naphthyl group to the 5 and 6 and positions at the pyridyl ring did not influence the S1 energy of complex 8 but altered the nature of the T1 states in 8 and 10 by switching them to the benzo[ g]quinoline-localized 3π,π* state, which resulted in completely different emission and TA spectra in these two complexes. The site-dependent variations of the ground- and excited-state absorption induced strong but varied RSA from these complexes for 4.1-ns laser pulses at 532 nm, with the RSA strength decreasing in the trend of 3 > 7 ≈ 4 ≈ 9 ≈ 6 > 8 ≈ 1 ≈ 2 ≈ 5 > 10.

Abstract
Abstract
In the present work, the crystal structure and third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of two novel chalcone derivatives namely (E)-3-(4-bromo-2-fluorophenyl)-1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (I) and (E)-3-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (II) are investigated by analyzing the packing pattern, intermolecular interaction, Hirshfeld surface analysis and standard Z-scan technique with continuous wave laser at 532 nm. Both compounds are donor-acceptor-acceptor (D–A–A) type intramolecular charge transferring molecule which crystallized in centrosymmetric space group. The existence of C–H···O hydrogen bonds in I and Br···O short contact interactions in II play important roles in their packing pattern and NLO properties. The molecules reveal a strong nonlinear refraction (NLR) and nonlinear susceptibility χ
(3) when the donor and acceptor are arranged side-by-side as in compound I. And as the donor and acceptor are aligned on a head-to-head alignment, the molecules divulge a strong third-order nonlinear absorption (NLA) and limiting threshold (LT). The Z-scan results indicate that both compounds would be potential applicants in the development of NLO devices.

Abstract
The control of luminous radiation has extremely important implications for modern and future technologies as well as in medicine. In this Review, we detail chemical structures and their relevant photophysical features for various groups of materials, including organic dyes such as metalloporphyrins and metallophthalocyanines (and derivatives), other common organic materials, mixed metal complexes and clusters, fullerenes, dendrimeric nanocomposites, polymeric materials (organic and/or inorganic), inorganic semiconductors, and other nanoscopic materials, utilized or potentially useful for the realization of devices able to filter in a smart way an external radiation. The concept of smart is referred to the characteristic of those materials that are capable to filter the radiation in a dynamic way without the need of an ancillary system for the activation of the required transmission change. In particular, this Review gives emphasis to the nonlinear optical properties of photoactive materials for the function of optical power limiting. All known mechanisms of optical limiting have been analyzed and discussed for the different types of materials.

Abstract
Novel heterocyclic azomethine dyes were prepared by the reaction of anthracene-9-carbaldehyde with different heterocyclic amines under microwave irradiation. Structures of the azomethine dyes were confirmed by the elemental analysis, mass spectrometry and several spectroscopic techniques. We studied absorbance and fluorescence spectra of the azomethine dyes in various solvents. They are found to be good absorbers and emitters. We also report photophysical properties like, extinction coefficient, oscillator strength, stokes shift and transition dipole moment. This reflects physicochemical behaviors of synthesized dyes. In addition, their intramolecular charge transfer and nonlinear optical properties, supported by natural bond orbital technique, were also studied computationally by density functional theory. The negative nonlinear refractive index and nonlinear absorption coefficient were measured for these dyes using the closed and open aperture Z-scan technique with a continuous wave helium-neon laser. These are found to vary linearly with solution concentration.

Abstract
Novel phosphorus triazatetrabenzcorrole (TBC) tetrasubstituted at the α- and β-positions of the peripheral fused benzene rings with t-butylphenoxy substituents have been prepared and characterized. The effect of the substituents on the electronic structures and optical properties is investigated with TD-DFT calculations and MCD spectroscopy. The optical limiting properties have been investigated to examine whether the lower symmetry that results from the direct pyrrole–pyrrole bond and hence the permanent dipole moment that is introduced result in higher safety thresholds, relative to the values that have been reported for phthalocyanines. The suitability of the compounds for singlet oxygen applications has also been examined.

Abstract
Single crystal of 1-(2-Methyl-6-nitro-4-phenyl-3-quinolyl) ethanone was grown using slow evaporation solution growth technique. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study reveals the lattice parameters of the grown crystal. The modes of vibration of different molecular groups present in 2M6NQE were identified by FTIR spectral analysis. Its optical behavior was examined through UV-vis-NIR absorption and PL emission spectrum. They signify that the crystal has transparency in the region between 383 and 1100 nm. The PL spectrum of the title compound shows green emission in the crystal. From the thermal analysis, 2M6NQE has found to be thermally stable up to 263°C, and the melting point of the material is 170°C. The estimations of third order non-linear optical properties like non-linear absorption coefficient (β), non-linear refractive index (n2) and susceptibility [χ(3)] were calculated using Z-scan technique. It has observed that, crystal exhibits reverse saturation absorption and self-defocusing performance. Etching study was carried out for the grown crystal using different solvents.

Abstract
Two multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-based nanohybrids, MWCNT-ZnTPP and MWCNT-TPP (TPP=5-[4-{2-(4-formylphenoxy)- ethyloxy}phenyl]-10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin, ZnTPP=5-[4-{(4-formylphenyl)ethynyl}phenyl]-10,15,20-triphenylporphinatozinc(II)), were prepared directly from pristine MWCNTs through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. Covalent attachment of the porphyrins to the surfaces of the MWCNTs was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet/visible absorption, fluorescence, Raman, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, elemental analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Attachment of the porphyrin moieties to the surface of the MWCNTs significantly improves the solubility and ease of processing of these MWCNT-porphyrin composite materials. Z-scan studies reveal that these MWCNT-porphyrin nanohybrids exhibit enhanced nonlinear optical properties under both nanosecond and picosecond laser pulses at λ=532 nm in comparison with free MWCNTs and the free porphyrin chromophores, whereas superior optical limiting performance was displayed by MWCNT-porphyrin composite materials rather than MWCNTs/ZnTPP and MWCNTs/TPP blends, which is consistent with a remarkable accumulation effect as a result of the covalent linkage between the porphyrin and the MWCNTs.

Abstract
In this paper, the vibrational spectral analysis and three-photon absorption properties of an organic material of 2-methylamino-5-chlorobenzophenone have been reported. The geometry and harmonic vibrational wavenumbers are calculated with the help of B3LYP density functional theory method. The detailed interpretation of the vibrational spectra has been carried out with the aid of normal coordinate analysis following the scaled quantum mechanical force field methodology (SQM). SQM force fields have also been used to calculate potential energy distribution (PED) in order to make conspicuous vibrational assignments. The nonlinear absorption properties have been investigated in ethanol solution at 532nm using the Z-scan technique employing laser pulses of 5ns duration. Open aperture Z-scan data reveal the presence of effective three-photon absorption for ns pulses at 532nm resulting in a strong optical limiting behavior, indicating possible photonic applications.

Abstract
We present our experimental results on the measurements of excited state dynamics in 2, 9, 16, 23-phenoxy-phthalocyanine (Pc1) and 2, 9, 16, 23-phenoxy-phthalocyanine-zinc (Pc2) using the pump-probe experiment. The results show that the lifetime of the first triplet excited state of the Pc2 longer than Pc1. The lifetimes of the triplet excited state for Pc2 and Pc1 are 12.8 μs and 10.1 μs at the same intensity, respectively. Moreover, analysis of modulation characteristics of all-optical switching (A-OS) shows that the stronger the light intensity of the pump light is, the smaller the normalized transmittance is, and the lower the A-OS response time is. The consequences of such short lifetimes are also discussed in view of the strong A-OS properties of these molecules.

This paper presents the study of the effects of CdTe-TGA quantum dots (QDs) on optical limiting ability of different phthalocyanine (Pc) complexes (1–10) containing Zn , Ga , In central metals and substituted with benzyloxyphenoxy, phenoxy, tert-butylphenoxy and amino groups. The optical limiting parameters of Pcs were higher for tert-butylphenoxy when compared to benzyloxyphenoxy and phenoxy substituents, in DMSO. Non-peripheral substitution decreased the optical limiting parameters. Third-order susceptibility (Im[χ(3)]/α) values of Pcs in the absence and presence of CdTe QDs were in the 10-12 to 10-10 esu.cm range. Hyperpolarizabilities (γ) ranged from 10-31 to 10-29 esu L for Pc alone or in mixture with QDs. There is a general improvement in optical limiting ability of Pc complexes in the presence of CdTe TGA QDs. Due to these promising results, future work can be implemented for the creation of Pc:QD thin films, which would then be examined to ensure that their optical limiting ability is still acceptable.

Abstract
The organic material 4-chloro-4'-chlorobenzylidene aniline (CCBA) was synthesized and confirmed by NMR and FTIR spectral analyses. CCBA crystal was grown from chloroform by slow evaporation at room temperature and the single crystal cell parameters were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The perfection of the grown crystal was analyzed by high resolution X-ray diffraction rocking curve analysis. Fluorescence spectrum indicated violet emission at 428 nm. The range of optical absorbance was ascertained by recording UV-vis-NIR spectrum. Load dependant microhardness measurements on this crystal revealed the mechanical behavior of the material. Stiffness constant, Meyer index and yield strength of CCBA crystal were calculated. Dielectric studies were carried out to estimate the dielectric parameters of the grown crystal in the frequency range from 100 Hz to 100 kHz. The thermal behavior of CCBA was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and no phase transition was identified in the temperature region 30-100°C. Further, the CCBA crystal was subjected to open aperture Z-scan studies in order to investigate the third order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of CCBA crystal.

Abstract
Positive and negative third-order optical nonlinearities have been investigated in single-stranded DNA wrapped semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes. It is found that the redox reactions of hydrogen peroxide can reverse the sign of the third-order nonlinearity. The observation proves that the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital has a lower density of electronic states than that of the highest occupied molecular orbital. A three-energy-level model is used to explain the effect of the redox reactions. Raman spectroscopy has also been used to investigate the interaction between single-walled carbon nanotubes and single-stranded DNA.

Abstract
The nonlinear absorption (NLA) properties of copper phthalocyanine (CuPc)-doped polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) thin film in the femtosecond regime were investigated both experimentally and theoretically. The open-aperture (OA) Z-scan measurements of the film were carried out by femtosecond laser pulse. A transition from saturable absorption (SA) to reverse saturable absorption (RSA) was observed as the excitation intensity is increased. The rate equation analysis based on an developed efficient energy level model was performed and the intensity dependence of level populations was obtained, which reveals the source of NLA. The results show that the transition from SA to RSA is ascribed to the fifth-order effect of excited-state absorption (ESA) induced by two-photon absorption (TPA) process. Furthermore, it is found that the CuPc-doped PMMA thin film possesses a large fifth-order coefficient (beta((5))) of 0.24 x 10(-21)cm(3)/W(2). It indicates that the CuPc-doped PMMA thin film could be a promising candidate for optical limiting material.

Abstract
We report for the first time on the synthesis of core-shell particles containing chloroaluminiumphthalocyanine (ClAlPc) prepared using a sol-gel technique. These particles have the dye molecules at the core, encapsulated by silica shell. The mean size of the particle is determined from HRTEM studies and is found to be approximately 0.08 microm. The surface and bulk compositions of the core-shell particles are studied by XPS and EDAX measurements, respectively. Time-resolved fluorescent measurements indicate a decrease in fluorescence lifetime for the core-shell particles as compared to that of bare dye dissolved in ethanol. This is analyzed on the basis of available theoretical models. Third-order nonlinear optical effects are investigated by the Z-scan technique using 8 ns pulses at a wavelength of 532 nm from a frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser. The analysis indicates that both singlet and triplet excited-state absorption contribute to nonlinear absorption.

Abstract
Using the Z-scan technique, we studied the nonlinear absorption and refraction behaviors of a dilute toluene solution of a silicon naphthalocyanine (Si(OSi(n-hexyl)(3))(2), SiNc) at 532 nanometer with both a 2.8-nanosecond pulse and a 21-nanosecond (HW1/eM) pulse train containing 11 18-picosecond pulses 7 nanosecond apart. A thermal acoustic model and its steady-state approximation account for the heat generated by the nonradiative relaxations subsequent to the absorption. We found that when the steady-state approximation satisfactorily explained the results obtained with a 21-nanosecond pulse train, only the thermal-acoustic model fit the 2.8-nanosecond experimental results, which supports the approximation criterion established by Kovsh et al.

Abstract
Many chromophores with a large two-photon absorptive cross section are hybrid materials where the two-photon absorption (TPA) is coupled to an excited-state absorption (ESA). We develop a numerical technique to investigate hybrid two-photon processes in nonlinear absorbers. Our numerical method compares well with published results. In addition to customary calculation of the transmission curve, we demonstrate the importance of the ESA following the TPA, which may cause significant temporal and radial distortion. We also show that improvements in the transmission can result in significant radial and temporal pulse distortion, which may actually reduce the material effect.

Abstract
Following a previous report on the synthesis and physicochemical characterization of a novel class of porphyrazines carrying peripherally annulated seven-membered rings, i.e., tetrakis-2,3-(5,7-diphenyl-1,4-diazepino)porphyrazine [Ph(8)DzPzH(2)].4H(2)O and its metal derivatives [Ph(8)DzPzM].xH(2)O (x = 2-7, M = Mg(II)(H(2)O), Cu(II), and Zn(II)), a new more convenient procedure is reported here, allowing the preparation in high yields of the Li(I) and Na(I) derivatives of formulas [Ph(8)DzPzLi(2)].5H(2)O and [Ph(8)DzPzNa(2)].6H(2)O, which can be directly converted into other metal derivatives under mild conditions (room temperature) and in good yields. The series studied has been extended to include the Mn(II) and Co(II) complexes also reported here for the first time. Physicochemical characterization of the new "diazepinoporphyrazines" was based on fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry and X-ray powder patterns, infrared (IR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and room-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements. A detailed discussion of the UV-vis spectra emphasizes the role played by the external diazepine rings in electron delocalization through their tautomeric or protonated forms present in neutral, basic, and acidic media. The nonlinear optical effect of optical limiting for the different species [M = 2H, Mg(II)(H(2)O), Mn(II), Co(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II)] has also been measured. It has been observed that the extent of the optical limiting depends on the specific M center. The observed nonlinear optical features are analyzed and discussed in terms of the electronic and magnetic properties exhibited by some of the metal ions and taking into account the model of the excited-state absorption in which the nature of M determines the kinetics of formation of the highly absorbing state of the specific complex examined. As evidenced by the detailed electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical study carried out on this new class of macrocycles, one of the most important aspects is the facilitated electron delocalization for the oxidized and reduced species allowed by a 1H-6Htautomerism taking place on the peripheral diazepine rings.

Abstract
We explore a new passive optical limiter design using transverse modulation instability in the one-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) using x(3) materials. The performance of PC optical limiters strongly depends on the choice of the materials and the geometry and it improves as the duration of the incident pulse is extended. PC optical limiter performance is compared with that of a device made from homogeneous material. We identify three criteria for benchmarking the PC optical limiter. We also include a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of PC optical limiters for real world applications.

Abstract
An efficient synthetic route to fuse [5]helicene moieties around the phthalocyanine core is reported. The helicene moiety was constructed by the Diels-Alder reaction of 3,4,3',4'-tetrahydro-1,1'-dinaphthyl and dibromobenzyne. Subsequent cyanation, oxidation, O-alkylation, and cyclic tetramerization resulted in octaalkoxy phthalocyanine derivatives which showed high solubility in common organic solvents and displayed strong absorption in the near-IR region.
