Investigation of the linear and nonlinear optical response of edge-linked conjugated zinc porphyrin oligomers by optical spectroscopy and configuration interaction techniques

We present a joint experimental and theoretical investigation of the linear and nonlinear optical response of butadiyne-linked zinc porphyrin oligomers. Efficient overlap between the chromophores leads to a large red-shift of the Q absorption band together with a splitting of the B band into two com...
