Two pyrazoline core fluorescent materials were designed, synthesized and characterized by various approaches. The synthesized materials were confirmed by standard 1 H NMR and FT-IR techniques. Porous like morphologies were found from SEM analysis and the thermal stability of the materials analyzed with TGA–DSC analysis. Emission properties, quantum yield, lifetime and bandgap energy of the materials have also been studied. Solvent effect of absorption and emission spectral results indicated that the wavelength was red-shifted to increase the solvent polarity. The semiconducting nature was studied by UV–visible spectra, cyclic voltammetry analysis and theoretical calculation. I–V characteristic analysis was used to determine turn-on voltage of the materials for optoelectronics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we present radio-frequency electro-magnetic field characterization of an electrooptic (EO) probe. This probe is able to simultaneously measure temperature and one component of the electric field (e-field) in a continuous wave (CW) or in a pulsed regime. For this purpose, linearity, selectivity, and sensitivity measurements are performed in air and in a cuvette filled with a water solution. The media are exposed to 1800-MHz CW electromagnetic wave through a transverse electromagnetic cell. Numerical characterization is also performed using finite-difference time-domain simulations. The EO probe presents a dynamic range exceeding 70 dB. Selectivity up to 25 dB is measured, demonstrating the ability of the EO probe to measure one unique component of the e-field. The EO probe sensitivity is equal to 0.77 and to 0.18 V · m-1Hz-½, in the air and in the water solution, respectively. This millimeter-sized EO probe is particularly suited for the measurement of ultrawide bandwidth and high-voltage e-fields up to a few megavolts per meter. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
