Abstract:
The two-photon absorption of the photosensitizers
5,10,15,20-tetrakis(m-hydroxyphenyl) porphyrin and the corresponding chlorin
has been studied in the near infrared (IR) range using open-aperture z-scan
technique. We found cross sections of 10–40 GM in the Q-band region,
comparable to values in the Soret-band. Both photosensitizers are promising
candidates for IR two-photon photodynamic therapy given the better penetration
of IR light into tissue.
