▎ 摘　　要

A reduced graphene oxide-zinc phthalocyanine (RGO-ZnPc) hybrid material with good dispersibility has been prepared by covalent functionalization method, based on the initial covalent linkage of ZnPc to GO and subsequent in situ reduction of GO moiety to RGO during mild thermal treatment in DMF solvent. The microscopic structure, morphology and photophysical properties of resultant RGO-ZnPc hybrid are characterized. The nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of the RGO-ZnPc hybrid are also investigated using the Z-scan technique at 532 nm with 4 ns laser pulses. The results show that the efficient functionalization and reduction of GO make RGO-ZnPc hybrid possess much larger NLO properties and optical limiting performance than those of individual GO, ZnPc and the GO-ZnPc hybrid. It can be ascribed to a combination of different NLO absorption mechanisms for RGO-ZnPc hybrid, including two-photon absorption originating from the sp(3) domains, saturable absorption from the sp(2) carbon clusters and excited state absorption from numerous localized sp(2) configurations in RGO moiety, reverse saturable absorption arising from ZnPc moiety and the contribution of efficient photo-induced electron transfer or energy transfer process between ZnPc and RGO.
