Abstract

This short review provides a concise summary of the current state of research on the population by two-photon absorption of the triplet metal-to-ligand 3MLCT excited state of ruthenium(II) complexes. Several effective and potential applications of this nonlinear optics phenomenon (optical power limiting in the near infrared, biological imagery and photodynamic therapy, PDT) and related linear effects will also be presented.
