RESUMO
Bis-Chalcone (BBDP) has been prepared by condensation of N, N-dimethyl benzaldehyde and 1,1'-([1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diyl) di (ethan-1-one), and structure of BBDP was characterized by Mass Spectra, 13C-NMR, 1H-NMR, and IR. Physicochemical properties including Dipole-moments, Stoke-Shifts, Oscillator-strength, dielectric constant and quantum-yields of fluorescence of BBDP were investigated by the emission and absorbances in different solvents. Compound (BBDP) displayed bathochromic shift upon increasing the solvent polarity (from n-Hexane to DMSO). Furthermore, we have exploited third-order nonlinear optical characteristics of the bisChalone were invigilated by the Z-scan techniques in Chloroform. The measurements were taken with a continuous-wave (CW) diode laser having a wavelength of 520 nm in CHCl3 solvent. The third-order nonlinear optical properties, such as the nonlinear refractive index (NLRI) n2, nonlinear absorption coefficient (NLAC) ß, and nonlinear susceptibility χ(3), were measured at various solution concentrations and laser powers. The obtained values of n2, ß, and χ(3) were estimated to be high, of the order of 10-7(cm2/W), 10-3 (cm/W), and 10-6 (esu), respectively. As a result, bis-chalcone (BBDP) is considered as a promising candidate for applications in nonlinear optical (NLO) devices and optical limiting (OL).
