Article Abstract
Pyrylium dyes having the same basic chemical structure, differing only to a specific substituent, have been used as novel materials for multiphoton three-dimensional data storage. Electronic absorption spectra, two-photon and three-photon absorption properties of this class of pyrylium dyes, have been studied theoretically and compared to experimental results. The effects of the counteranion, the surrounding solvent, and electron releasing and electron withdrawing groups in specific positions of the basic structure have been explored in detail. It is argued that on grounds of the quality of experimental spectroscopic agreement, the computed two- and three-photon data may be used in pulse propagation simulations of three-dimensional recording in optical memories.

Chiral transition metal oxides (TMOs) have garnered significant attention in biological and optoelectronic applications due to their light-matter interaction mechanisms and tunable optical activities. However, the current understanding of their optical properties remains incomplete, limiting further development of related applications. To address this knowledge gap, this work has systematically investigated the photophysical characteristics of chiral TMOs, using chiral cobalt oxide nanoparticles (l/d-Cys-CoO NPs) as a model system.

In particular, interference forms the basis of optical quantum information processing platforms and can lead to significant computational advantages. It is therefore interesting to study the interference arising from various states of light in large interferometric networks.

Quantum cutting (QC) materials still attract significant attention due to their high quantum and energy efficiencies, which stem from the effective utilization of the excitation energy. In this study, a one-to-three QC 1544 nm emission was first developed in an Er3+ single-doped Ca2ScSbO6 phosphor system. The Ca2ScSbO6 host was selected since it possesses moderate maximum-phonon energy, which suppresses non-radiative relaxation while maintaining phonon-assisted energy transfers between Er3+ ions.

Red, far red, or near-infrared photoswitchable drugs offer immense photo-pharmacological advantages due to the higher light penetration through the skin. Such photoactivation is achieved using processes such as two- and three-photon absorption, excited-state absorption, and triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion, which require higher photon fluences (W to kW cm) than the resilience constraints of skin (200 mW cm). Herein, a generalized approach of cis-to-trans photoisomerization of azobenzenes is demonstrated via triplet sensitization with NIR-I illumination (850 nm) of a new Zn-octa-substituted phthalocyanine photosensitizer, in aqueous medium at 2.

Significance: Miniature multiphoton microscopy has revolutionized neuronal imaging in freely behaving animals. However, its shallow depth of field-a result of high axial resolution-combined with a limited field of view (FOV), makes it challenging for researchers to identify regions of interest in three-dimensional space across multimillimeter cranial windows, thereby reducing the system's ease of use.
Aim: We aimed to develop a multimodal imaging platform with enhanced guidance and a standardized workflow tailored for efficient imaging of freely behaving animals.
