Two chromophoric congeners derived from indenoquinoxaline and oxadiazole are designed, synthesized and characterized for their multi-photon properties in the femtosecond time domain. These two model structures are experimentally found to exhibit strong and widely distributed two- and three-photon activities within the spectral range of 680-1500 nm and the larger congener manifests maximum two- and three-photon absorption cross-section values of 2120 GM (at 750 nm) and ∼85 × 10 cm s (at 1280 nm), respectively. Both two- and three-photon absorption-based optical power-limiting performance of a representative model compound are also evaluated and demonstrated.

-β, β-β' trifused porphyrins incorporating two distinct active methylene groups (MN = malononitrile and IND = 1,3-indanedione) and their corresponding metal complexes with Cu(II) and Zn(II) have been synthesized with good to excellent yields and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques and spectrometric methods. Single crystal X-ray analysis of the Zn(II) complex ZnTFPMB(MN) (where TFP = trifused porphyrin and MB = mono benzo) revealed a nonplanar 'armchair' type conformation with a twist angle of 24.10°.

As the hyperentanglement of photon systems holds lots of remarkable applications for enhancing channel capacity with less quantum resource, the interconversion of various hyperentangled states warrants in-depth investigation and becomes a vital work for quantum information technologies. Here we realize completely mutual conversions between spatial-polarization hyperentangled Knill-Laflamme-Milburn state and hyperentangled W state for three-photon systems, resorting to hyperparallel quantum control gates and the practical nonlinear interaction of nitrogen-vacancy centers coupled with whispering-gallery-mode microresonators. The hyperparallel quantum gates, i.

Cortical computations arise from patterns of neuronal activity that span across all cortical layers and cell types. Three-photon excitation has extended the depth limit of imaging within the mouse brain to encompass all cortical layers. However, simultaneous three-photon imaging throughout cortical layers has yet to be demonstrated.

Label-free imaging through two-photon autofluorescence of NAD(P)H allows for nondestructive, high-resolution visualization of cellular activities in living systems. However, its application to thick tissues has been restricted by its limited penetration depth within 300 μm, largely due to light scattering. Here, we demonstrate that the imaging depth for NAD(P)H can be extended to more than 700 μm in living engineered human multicellular microtissues by adopting multimode fiber-based, low repetition rate, high peak power, three-photon excitation of NAD(P)H at 1100 nm.
