The nonlinear optical characterization of meso-substituted porphyrin dyes

Nine structurally related porphyrins are studied and it is shown how the material parameters that control the optical limiting depend on the molecular structure. Optical limiting measurements at 532 nm on the metal-free, zinc and lead analogues of tetraphenyl porphyrin (TPP), tetra(trimethylsilyethy...
