| Abstract | The intrinsic relationship between molecular structure and non-linear optical (NLO) properties is exploited with regard to materials for use in second-harmonic generation (SHG). A bond-length-alternation (BLA) study is performed on all available crystal structures of tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) derivatives in order to predict better SHG contenders. This builds upon a previous bond-length-alternation study that was carried out on a series of TCNQ derivatives. There, a formalism was derived to calculate the relative level of delocalisation within the central TCNQ fragment and relate this to the molecular hyperpolarizability, β, the measure of the SHG coefficient on the molecular scale. This formalism is based upon the ‘strength–length’ relationship in bonds that has been validated via a charge-density study on one of these TCNQ derivatives using a topological approach. The results of the study are grouped according to the relative levels of delocalisation present in each molecule and compared with known SHG contenders. The promise of TCNQ derivatives for non-linear optics lies partly in their typically high molecular dipole moments, μ. However, large values of μ usually force the molecules to pack centrosymmetrically in a crystalline environment since the dipoles oppose each other in close proximity, and centrosymmetry precludes any SHG effect since this property is a third-rank tensor. A strategy for forming these materials in a solid-state head-to-tail arrangement that is regular but not crystalline is therefore highly desirable. A feasibility study on the adsorption of a TCNQ derivative into zeolite, ZSM-5, shows that this objective may be achievable in this class of materials, thus providing a mechanism for realizing the potential of highly SHG-active materials identified in the bond-length-alternation study. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
