Abstract

An ultrathin composite films with alternated layers containing anionic lithium tetracarboxyl indium phthalocyanine chloride (ClInPc(COOLi)₄) and cationic poly(diallydimethyl ammonium chloride) (PDDA) were prepared using layer-by-layer assembly technique. The resulting films were characterized by Ultraviolet-visible and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, showing regularly consecutive adsorption. The ultrafast third-order nonlinear optical properties of the films were investigated via a 4f coherent imaging system with phase object with 190 fs laser pulses at 532nm. The results demonstrate that the ultrathin films exhibited excellent self-focusing effect (n₂ ∼ 8.86 × 10⁻¹⁷ m²/W) and reverse saturable absorption properties (β ∼ 5.19 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/W), while the nonlinear optical response of the same composite in aqueous solution were found to be negligible. Our results indicate that the ClInPc(COOLi)₄/PDDA film is a promising candidate for future nonlinear optical devices.
