A new free-radical photonpolymerization initiator Tris-[4-(2-pyridin-4-yl-vinyl)-phenyl]-amine (TPPA) has been synthesized and characterized by H-1 NNM spectra, C-13 NMR spectra and elemental analyses. X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that TPPA belongs to monoclinic system, P2(1)/n space group with a = 15.851 (3), b = 9.7932 (18), c = 20.084 (6) Angstrom, alpha = 90, beta = 107.241 (12), gamma = 90degrees, V = 2977.6 (12) Angstrom(3), Z = 4, T = 293 (2) K, D-c = 1.237 g cm(-3), R-1 = 0.0569, wR = 0.1245. The calculated two-photon absorption cross-section is 33.6 X 10(-50) cm(4) s photon(-1). The experimental results confirm that TPPA is a good two-photon absorbing chromophore and operative two-photon photopolymerization initiator. When pumped with 820 run laser irradiation, TPPA shows strong two-photon induced fluorescence. A microstructure has been fabricated under irradiation using a 200 fs, 76 MHz Ti: sapphire femtosecond laser at 820 nm. The possible photopolymerization mechanism is discussed. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V.
