The organic-inorganic hybrid salt: 1,1'-methylenedipyridinium pentacynidonitrosoferrate(II)pentahydrate is synthesized and characterized by multinuclear NMR, IR, and UV-vis spectroscopies and elemental analysis. The third order nonlinear optical properties of the new complex in an aqueous solution have been studied using Z-scan technique. Measurements were performed for input intensities (I₀) of 437 and 241 W/cm² for the two concentrations with a CW diode laser at 635 nm wavelength. The nonlinear optical absorption coefficient (β) and nonlinear refraction (n₂) are found at 1.28×10¯³ cm/W and 10.17×10¯⁹ cm²/W, respectively. The overall results suggested that better nonlinearity was observed at a higher concentration of sample. Our results suggest that this material is considered as a promising candidate for future optical device applications.
The third-order nonlinear optical properties of 1,1'-methylenedipyridinium bis[tetrachloride gold(III)] were investigated by the z-scan method using CW diode laser. The experimental results led to estimation of the nonlinear optical absorption coefficient (β), the nonlinear optical refraction (n₂), and third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility (χ³). Our results show that the excited-state absorption cross-sections (σ_{ex}) is larger than the ground-state absorption cross-sections (σ_{g}), this suggests that the nonlinear optical absorption in the MPTC gold(III) is due to the reverse saturable absorption mechanism. Furthermore, the obtained results suggest that our material is considered as a promising candidate for future optical devices applications.
