Abstract

The observation is reported of satn. with chain length of the 2nd hyperpolarizability of a series of long defined conjugated oligothiophenes. This satn. occurs at the same length as that of the band gap and of the polarizability, and is attributed to a satn. of the effective conjugation length. Solvatochromic and thermochromic measurements indicate that conformational effects play a role. [on SciFinder (R)]
