Organic compounds containing conjugated carbon chains have been extensively investigated due to their interesting properties including nonlinear optical response. Polyynes are a group of compounds where the conjugation can be modified by appropriate selection of end-groups, enabling “control” and improvement of nonlinear effects. In this work, we investigate three newly synthesized aryl end-capped octatetraynes, exhibiting strong nonlinear absorption and nonlinear refraction properties, which can be attributed to the presence of aryl end-groups with electron-withdrawing functional groups suitable for further extending the conjugation. Nonlinear optical measurements were performed using a f-scan (modified Z-scan) technique with a femtosecond laser system at various wavelengths in the visible and near-infrared range (540–1600 nm), revealing strong negative third-order nonlinear refraction (3NR) and two-photon absorption (2PA) below 600 nm and a noticeable three-photon absorption (3PA) at longer wavelengths. The results of spectroscopic characterization and the crystallographic data for the investigated compounds are also presented.

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.
