title: Theoretical studies on the photoisomerization-switchable second-order nonlinear optical responses of DTE-linked polyoxometalate derivatives.
abstract: The switchable second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) responses of the photoisomerized chromophore dithienylperfluorocyclopentene (DTE) derivatives, organic-inorganic systems of Lindqvist-type [Mo₆O₁₉]²⁻, have been investigated by tuning open-ring and the closed-ring form. In the present paper, we performed density functional theory (DFT) combined with finite field (FF) methods to calculate the second-order NLO coefficients for these organic-inorganic compounds. The calculations with three functionals (B3LYP/CAM-B3LYP/LC-BLYP) confirm the switching behavior on NLO properties by the photoisomerization reaction. The β(tot) value of system 2c (closed-ring form) is 10 times larger than that of its open-ring form (system 2o). And the other two pairs of systems also show good tuning properties. The ampliative ratio on second-order NLO coefficients between systems 2o and 2c (β(2c)/β(2o)) is 13 times as large as that of DTE (β(DTEc)/β(DTEo)). It suggests that introduction of [Mo₆O₁₉]²⁻ and organic groups to the DTE monomer effectively improve the conversion ratio of second-order NLO coefficients between the open-ring and closed-ring forms.
