Provided are chromophores with very large two-photon absorption cross-sections. One group of these chromophores has the formula:
(T—Q)n—N—Phm
wherein Q is a single bond or 1,4-phenylene, Ph is a phenyl group, n has a value of 1-3 and m has a value of 3−n, and wherein T is
wherein R1 and R2 are alkyl groups having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, provided that when Q is a single bond, the value of n is 2 or 3.
Another group of these chromophores has the formula:
(T—Q)n—G—Phm
wherein T is as defined above, Q is a single bond or 1,4-phenylene, Ph is a phenyl group, n has a value of 1-4 and m has a value of 4−n, and wherein G is a 4-arm core unit.
Yet another group of these chromophores has the formula:
(T—Q)n—G—Phm
wherein T is as described previously, Q is a single bond or 1,4-phenylene, Ph is a phenyl group, n has a value of 1-6 and m has a value of 6−n, and wherein G is a 6-arm core unit.
提供的是具有非常大的双光子吸收截面的色团。其中一组这些色团的
化学式为:(T—Q)n—N—Phm,其中Q是单键或1,4-苯撑基,Ph是苯基,n的值为1-3,m的值为3-n,而T是其中R1和R2是具有1到20个碳原子的烷基,但当Q是单键时,n的值为2或3。另一组这些色团的
