Efficiently Site-Isolated Two-Photon Absorbing Dendrimer with Stilbazolium Chromophore
To prevent the chromophore aggregation, a dendritic stilbazolium salt-type chromophore was synthesized via base-catalyzed coupling reaction of trihydroxy-functionalized tetraphenylborate stilbazolium salt core with appropriate peripheral Frechet-type dendrons G3-benzyl bromide. The casted solid film of the resulting two-photon absorbing dendrimer showed high fIuorescence efficiency and optical power limiting activity which were not observed from the bare chromophore without dendrons. This result is attributed to the site isolation effect of its dendritic structure. By introducing this chromophore we have successfully fabricated micropatterns with high resolution by two-photon polymerization.
