ABSTRACT
A novel intra-molecular self-redox switch, Li3N3Mg, is constructed theoretically. Our investigation showed that a suitably oriented external electric field (OEEF) can drive a long-range excess electron transfer from Mg atoms to Li3 rings. And subsequently, an interesting intra-molecular self-redox from Li32+N33-Mg+ to Li3+N33-Mg2+ accompanying the large different electronic static first hyperpolarizability (ß) is exhibited. The increase of the ß value constitutes an order of magnitude improvement from Li32+N33-Mg+ (34 986 a.u.) to Li3+N33-Mg2+ (101 225 a.u.), which indicates that Li3N3Mg is a good candidate for a self-redox NLO molecular switch.
