Chemistry of Carbon Sulfides

The third-order nonlinear optical susceptibilities of carbon sulfides, along with other sulfur-rich metal complexes, were measured using the z-scan technique with a 35 ps pulsed laser at 527.5 nm. The measurements were done in solution, which was continuously pumped through the sample cuvette to avoid heating. The susceptibilities of the molecules in solution was determined by subtracting the susceptibility of the solvent from that of the solution. The highest susceptibilities were found to be for C6S8O 2 and (Me4N)4[Zn10(SPh)16].
