Chem Sci [Internet]. 2013 [citado 17 de enero de 2025];4(5):2024. Disponible en: https://xlink.rsc.org/?DOI=c3sc22306j2041-65202041-653910.1039/c3sc22306jhttps://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/114860The established approach to design a molecule with strong second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) activity is to connect an electron-donor to an electron-acceptor via a pi-conjugated bridge, to generate push-pull system. Surprisingly, we have found that dyes with large first hyperpolarizabilities, and which exhibit strong second harmonic generation (SHG), can be created just by attaching an electron-donor to a porphyrin. The free-base porphyrin core is sufficiently electron-deficient that the hyperpolarizability does not increase on addition of a pyridinium electron-acceptor.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/journal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1039/c3sc22306jrestricted access615:54615.31Química farmaceútica23 Química
