Abstract

In this research article, we reported solvent effects on non-linear optical (NLO) properties of 5,5′-disubstituted-2,2′-bipyridine complexes of ruthenium. The polarizability (α) and hyperpolarizability (β) were calculated in the gas phase. Benzene (ϵ (dielectric constant) = 2.3), THF (ϵ = 7.52), dichloromethane (ϵ = 8.93), acetone (ϵ = 21.01), methanol (ϵ = 33.00), and water (ϵ = 80.10) were used by density functional theory. These solvents cover a wide range of polarities. The results of theoretical investigation showed that the non-linear optical properties were significantly increased with the increase in solvent polarity. The results of this study also showed that similarly to structural modifications, polarity of the medium may play a significant role in modulating the NLO properties.
