Abstract:

A new nonlinear optical(NLO) organic material, 1-ferrocenyl-3-((9-ethyl) carbazole-3-yl) acrylic ketone(FCAK), was synthesized and characterized by IR, MS, NMR and element analysis. The title compound exhibits third-order nonlinear optical properties. The related parameters were obtained by powder technique using the Nd∶YAG laser. When the laser pulse is four nanoseconds, the nonlinear refractive index n2 is -3.5×10-18 m2/W, the nonlinear absorption coefficient β is -2.7×10-11 m/W, the third-order nonlinear polarizability χ(3) is 2.04×10-12 esu, the third-order nonlinear molecular hyperpolarizability γ is 1.1×10-30 esu. When the laser pulse is twenty one picoseconds, n2 is 0.55×10-18 m2/W, β is -0.6×10-11 m/W, χ(3) is 3.4×10-13 esu, γ is 0.13×10-30 esu.
