Abstract

We investigate the three-photon absorption spectra of four platinum acetylides complexes employing femtosecond pulses. We observed strong three-photon absorption cross-section in the near-infrared region (from 850 nm to 1200 nm). The three-photon absorption (3PA) spectra present resonance enhancement effect as two photons of the excitation wavelength approach the lower two-photon allowed states of the molecules as well as a 3PA allowed band around 1180 nm. The 3PA cross-section spectra were interpreted using the sum-over-essential-states approach, considering a three-energy-level diagram.
