The results indicate that the protonated Schiff bases (PSB) of the 2-substituted azulenic retinal analogues possess extremely large negative β values and very good transparency. These can be attributed to the large difference between the ground state dipole moment and the first excited state dipole moment according to the electronic property analysis. The characteristic blue-shifted absorption in polar solvents of the 2-substituted PSB chromophores can be well explained by the negative solva-tochromic effects. The largest calculated |μβ| value can reach the magnitude of 10-44 esu, which is close to the highest reported values of synthesized chromophores.展开更多

The dispersion relation of the first hyperpolariza-bilities of chromophores holds the same tendency as the experimental results. In addition, the static first hyperpo-larizability 0 of molecules was calculated by means of the Sum-Over-States (SOS) expression and the two-level formula respectively. The results show that these molecules possess large static first hyperpolarizabilities and the 0 value increases as the donor or acceptor strength enhances; the distorted degree of molecules has also an important influence on the 0 value.展开更多

The values were then compared to the experimental ones. The M06-2X functional was then selected for further calculations. NBO calculations were also performed to define the intramolecular charge transfer in each molecule. TD-DFT calculations were performed taking into account the solvent effect using the IEF-PCM formalism. Some parameters characterizing the vertical transitions such as the wavelength of the maximum absorption λ_(max) were compared to the experimental ones. Finally,solvation Gibbs free enthalpy ΔG_(solv) values have also been examined in order to determine which the specific solvent for a given molecule is.展开更多
According to density functional theory, we investigate the effects of BF3, BF4, BCI3, A1F3, AICI3, A1Br3, 13eF3, GaF3, GaC13, GaBr3, NO3, BS2, BSO, BO2, F2, PFs, PC15, and ASF5 molecules on the geometric, electronic, ...According to density functional theory, we investigate the effects of BF3, BF4, BCI3, A1F3, AICI3, A1Br3, 13eF3, GaF3, GaC13, GaBr3, NO3, BS2, BSO, BO2, F2, PFs, PC15, and ASF5 molecules on the geometric, electronic, linear, and nonlinear optical properties of an Mg12012 nanocage. The thermodynamic stability and feasibility of the adsorption process are investigated by analyzing the free energy. It is shown that the adsorptions of almost all molecules on the Mg12OI2 surface are exothermic. The calculations of the polarizability of these nanoclusters show that among the studied molecules, BeF3 has the largest influence on the polarizability value （a≈315 a.u., the unit a.u. is short for atomic unit）. The static first hyperpolarizability （β0） value is increased in the presence of these superhalogens. This increase is greatest for BeF3 and BF4 of which the highest value of the first hyperpolarizability （βO≈ 5775 a.u.） is related to a BeF3_c（e@Mgl2Ol2） nanocluster. The adsorption position is a key to estimating the value of increasing the first hyperpolarizability.展开更多

The optimized geometry of the molecule, its vibrational frequencies along with corresponding intensities have been computed using the Density Functional Theory (DFT) employing B3LYP/6-311++G basis set. The scaled values of harmonic vibrational frequencies obtained in the computations have been compared with their experimental counter parts. The scaling factors have been refined to reproduce the frequencies with an RMS error of 11.68 cm-1 between the experimental and computed frequencies. The theoretically constructed spectra agree satisfactorily with those of experimental spectra. First order hyperpolarizability constants have also been evaluated.展开更多
