Determination and modeling of the dispersion of the molecular first hyperpolarisability: octupolar etallodendrimers and carbon nanotubes.

The aim of this research project is to examine the dispersion of the molecular first hyperpolarisability ß, in order to develop a proper ß dispersion model. By performing wavelength-dependent HRS measurements onto a number of well-chosen model systems, the current models can be tested and improved, and if necessary a new approach can be developed.
