Abstract

In this study, density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory are used to determine how the size of π-conjugated system influences the absorption spectra and non-linear optical (NLO) properties of dyes. Double and triple bonds, as well the benzene rings, are used in conjugated systems. The results of the theoretical computation show that the absorption spectra are gradually broadened and red-shifted with increases in the conjugation length. Theoretical examination of the NLO properties was performed on the key parameters of polarizability and hyperpolarizability. A notable increase in the non-linear optical response was observed with an increase in the conjugation length of the π-spacer.
