| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study performed large-scale quantum chemistry calculations to propose a strategy for constructing second-order nonlinear optical materials composed by dimethylaminonitorostilbene (DANS) molecules inside a carbon nanotubes. A key in this strategy is utilizing of confinement of carbon nanotubes to control molecular orientation and alignment of inner DANS aggregates. In fact, the theoretical studies revealed potential energy surface of insertion of DANS molecules, and the activation energy for the insertion process. According to the current study, one can kinetically control the alignments of the DANS molecules inside a thicker tube whose diameter is larger than 1 nm, and accordingly one can construct linearly-aligned DANS aggregates, which can exhibit significant second-order nonlinear properties. The above findings provide an important step to effectively construct wavelength conversion devices derived from stilbene-derivatives inside carbon nanotubes.
