A TD-DFT investigation of two-photon absorption of fluorene derivatives
Literature Information
D. Simon
We report time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations on the two-photon absorption (TPA) properties of fluorene and derivatives. The influence of donor and acceptor groups and of dimerisation is investigated. Firstly the choice of a DFT functional and of the basis set is performed by comparison of experimental and calculated excitation energies and two-photon cross sections. Then, the calculations display an enhancement of the cross section with acceptor groups or with a combination of one donor and one acceptor groups (push–pull), at some positions on the cycles. Moreover, the largest cross section is obtained for bifluorene. The replacement of carbon atoms by nitrogen atoms, giving heterocycles, is not efficient. In chloroform as solvent, the excitation energy decreases and the two-photon cross section increases, mainly with a polar molecule. Finally, a rationalization of the results is given based on the three-level model by analysis of the transition moments and of the molecular orbitals.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
