| contents | This study delves into the enhancement of two-photon absorption (2PA) properties in diazaacene-bithiophene derivatives through a synergistic approach combining theoretical analysis and experimental validation. By investigating the structural modifications and their impact on 2PA cross sections, we identify key factors that significantly influence the 2PA efficiency. For all molecular systems studied, our state-of-the-art quantum chemical calculations show a very high involvement of the first excited singlet state (S1) in the 2PA processes into higher excited states, even if this state itself has only a small 2PA cross section for symmetry reasons. Consequently, both the oscillator strength of S1 and the transition dipole moments between S1 and other excited states are of importance, underscoring the role of electronic polarizability in facilitating effective two-photon interactions. The investigated compounds exhibit large 2PA cross sections over a wide near-infrared spectral range reaching giant values of 42000 GM. The introduction of diazine and diazaacene moieties into bithiophene derivatives not only induces charge transfer but also opens up pathways for the creation of materials with tailored nonlinear optical responses, suggesting potential applications in nonlinear optics. |
