Introduction

Over the past ten years, various researchers have become interested in the use of organics as nonlinear optical materials for photonic switching and optical limiting applications, with important implications for information technology and industrial applications. All-optical switching, threedimensional optical devices, all-optical limiting, medical science, and other optical fields are some examples of photonic applications. Organic materials are the most alluring due to the wide variety of known organic compounds and the inherent flexibility in modifying such molecules to have desired properties. These molecules' nonlinearity is brought on by a significant delocalization of -electrons along the length of the molecule. Through molecular engineering, we can create organic systems with improved nonlinear properties and evaluate the linear and nonlinear equations [1].

Description

By substituting electron acceptors and donors, an increased conjugation length reverses the sense of symmetric charge transfer and increases the distance over which charge can be transferred, resulting in acceptor-donoracceptor compounds and the formation of a donor-acceptor-donor motif by substitution. The aforementioned method was used to synthesize the hydrazine derivatives examined in this article with the intention of altering the fundamental structure by substituting various electron donating and electron withdrawing groups to enhance their nonlinear optical response. For nonlinear optics, hydrazine is a good organic material class. Molecular nonlinearity for electron donating and withdrawing group substitutions is significantly enhanced by the hydrazine backbone, which acts as an asymmetric transmitter. While the group accepts electrons, the and groups are electron donors. Effective nonlinear optical materials are frequently identified by means of tests like the Z-scan pump probe and four waves mixing experiments [2,3].

The single beam Z-scan method is used to investigate these materials' third-order nonlinear optical properties. The compounds exhibit strong optical limiting and third-order nonlinearity under nanosecond laser pulses [4]. However, because they are not as flexible as polymers and degrade when exposed to powerful laser beams, they cannot be used directly in practical devices. The chemicals were doped into the matrix in order to address this issue and make these materials usable in devices. A hard, rigid, and transparent nonlinear optical polymer with a glass transition it has an average molecular weight of [5]. Physically stronger than polystyrene and significantly more durable than other thermoplastics is the preferred material for component design.

Conclusion

Utilizing nanosecond laser pulses at 532 nm, the Z-scan method is employed to explore the third-order characteristics, and the structure-property relationship of hydrazine-based pure compounds in host is described. Investigations into optical limiting were also done. The connection between molecular structure and the behaviour of detected NLOs is investigated. The third-order nonlinear optical coefficient measured in this work is an order of magnitude bigger than that found in previously published works on the nonlinear optical coefficient of the system and poly.
