Summary: In this study, the luminescent properties of multilayer CoTPP molecules self-assembled on an Au(111) surface were investigated using STM-induced luminescence. The influence of bias polarity on plasmonic emission and the first light emission from hypsoporphyrins in the tunneling junction were explored, with the mechanism of light emission further elucidated using density-matrix method and classical electrodynamics. These findings expand our understanding of plasmon-exciton coupling in STM nanocavity and suggest a new approach to enhance the fluorescent potential of hypsoporphyrins.

Summary: Excited state absorption (ESA) has been used to controllably induce photo-protonation of porphyrins in chloroform solution. The number of fluorine atoms linked to the porphyrin's outlying phenyl substituents affects both the protonation formation rate and stability of the photo-protonated structures. Increasing the number of fluorine atoms decreases the efficiency of the reaction and reduces the stability of the photo-protonated porphyrins. These findings provide insights into tuning the ESA-triggered photo-protonation of porphyrins.

Summary: We propose a three-level model of symmetry-breaking charge transfer (SBCT) in excited octupolar molecules. This model describes the dynamics of the solvent and the dye in the excited state. We introduce a distribution function in the space of two reaction coordinates and derive an evolution equation for this function.

Summary: This study investigates the excited state dynamics of luteolin and quercetin, two natural flavonoids with low fluorescence quantum yields, using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations. The ultrafast ESIPT process in these non-emissive flavonoids is experimentally demonstrated, and it is proposed that the rotation between B-and C-ring after ESIPT is the key to their ultrafast non-radiation decay channels, suggesting their potential as natural sunscreens.

Summary: It is shown that trans-stilbene (TSB) has potential as an ultrafast optical limiting material through three-photon absorption (3PA)-induced excited state absorption (ESA). The main transitions in the absorption bands of TSB are mostly local excitation. To improve its optical limiting performance, TSB derivatives with an electron donor-pi-acceptor structure are designed. The derivatives show enhanced and broadened absorption bands with obvious charge transfer characteristics, making them promising optical limiting materials based on TSB.

Summary: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is important for physiological and pathological processes, but abnormal levels can cause diseases. Researchers investigated the luminous mechanism of turn-on probe for H2S monitoring and explored the effect of geometric modifications on optical properties. They found that introducing electron-withdrawing groups in benzopyran can suppress molecular skeleton vibration and improve two-photon absorption properties. A potential material for biological imaging and H2S detection with distinguishable spectra, high luminous efficiency, and large two-photon absorption cross section was obtained.

Summary: This study investigates the excited-state dynamics of Proflavine after intercalation into DNA duplex using femtosecond time-resolved spectroscopy. It is found that both fluorescence and triplet excited-state generation of Proflavine are quenched after intercalation into DNA, due to ultrafast non-radiative channels. A static-quenching mechanism for the Proflavine-DNA complex is identified, in accordance with the spectroscopy data, and an excited-state deactivation mechanism is proposed.

Summary: In this study, the ground and first singlet excited state absorption in distyrylbenzene (DSB) were simulated using linear-response time dependent density functional theory (LR-TDDFT). The results showed strong reverse saturable absorption effect of DSB in the near-infrared range. The three-photon absorption in DSB was also investigated, and it was found that DSB can function as an ultrafast optical limiter for light with wavelengths around 775 nm. The optical limiting behavior was primarily attributed to the three-photon induced excited state absorption (3PA-ESA), and the length of the pi-electron conjugated structure and molecular aggregation were found to affect the optical limiting efficiency of DSB. These findings provide theoretical guidance for the design of distyrylbenzene-based optical limiting materials.

Summary: In this work, the third-order nonlinear optical properties of pure tungsten disulfide (WS2) nanolayers decorated with NiO nanoparticles (NPs) were measured using femtosecond Z-scan measurements. The inclusion of NiO NPs increased the nonlinear absorption at 800 and 400 nm wavelengths. The nonlinear absorption mechanism of WS2 nanolayers can be switched from saturable absorption to two-photon absorption or reverse saturable absorption by changing the pump intensity with the embedded NiO NPs playing a crucial role.

Summary: The strong nonlinear optical properties of silver-platinum nanoparticles were investigated using the Z-scan technique. Different concentrations of platinum in the nanoparticles led to different behaviors of reverse saturable absorption and two-photon absorption.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of silver nanoparticles on the nonlinear optical properties of holmium-doped melt-quenched borate-based glasses. Co-doping silver nanoparticles in lanthanum alkali borate glasses significantly improves their nonlinear absorption and optical limiting performance. The presence of silver nanoparticles in the glasses is confirmed by linear optical absorption and electron microscopic measurements. Using the open aperture Z-scan technique, the nonlinear optical and optical limiting features are determined, indicating that the high AgCl loaded lanthanum alkali borate glasses are effective in suppressing high energy near-infrared laser radiation for the protection of sensitive optical devices.

Summary: Size-dependent perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) have shown significant improvement in nonlinear optical (NLO) studies, but their industrialization is limited by their toxicity and instability. Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) are promising candidates for achieving advanced NLO properties. By investigating the interaction between FAPbBr3 and Sr2+ ions, SrCl2-doped FAPbBr3 PNCs demonstrated enhanced three-photon absorption (3PA) comparable/superior to other reported PNCs. This research provides a pathway for developing more stable and less toxic OIHP PNCs for optoelectronic applications.

Summary: In this study, femtosecond laser ablation was used to generate nanoparticles from decagonal quasicrystals in a liquid medium. The structural analysis showed that the nanoparticles retained the phase of the target material. Formation of Al3Ni2 phase was observed in Al70Co20Ni10, while no formation of Al-Ni phase was observed in Al70Co15Cu10Ni5. Optical analysis confirmed the formation of Al2O3 in both cases, with a weak signal of CuO detected in Al70Co15Cu10Ni5. Laser-induced periodic surface structures were also studied in the ablated region of the target's surface.

Summary: It has been found that the introduction of buffer layers improves the electrical performance of solid oxide fuel cells (SSOFCs). In this study, varying ratios of Gd-doped CeO2 were used as buffer layers in YSZ-based SSOFCs. The results demonstrate that the performance of SSOFCs is enhanced when a buffer layer is added, with the highest performance achieved using Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-delta (GDC20) as the buffer layer. This suggests that the use of GDC series buffer layers is an attractive strategy to optimize performance loss due to electrolyte-electrode interactions.

Experimental data shows that CsPbI3 nanorods have an extremely high two-photon absorption cross-section, significantly surpassing organic chromophores and other CsPbBr3 nanocrystals. Moreover, adjusting the aspect ratio can significantly enhance the absorption ability. Additionally, the study also reveals a moderate quantum confinement effect on the single-photon and two-photon absorption cross-section of the nanorods.
