- Description
- This work reports on three asymmetrical Zn(II) phthalocyanines, namely: zinc(II) 3–(4-phenoxy)propanoic acid) phthalocyanine(1), zinc(II) 3–(4-phenoxy carboxylic acid) phthalocyanine (2) and zinc(II) 3–(4–oxy)phenoxy)acetic acid phthalocyanine (3) when covalently linked to glutathione(GSH) capped CdTe/ZnSe and CdTe/ZnSe/ZnO quantum dots (QDs). Of the Pc complexes alone, 1 afforded the highest triplet quantum yield (ΦT) value of 0.67 with corresponding largest nonlinear absorption coefficient (βeff) value of 14.0 cm/GW compared to 2 and 3. The conjugates afforded improved triplet quantum yield and nonlinear optical behavior in comparison to the Pc complexes alone.
