Abstract: A novel hyperbranched triphenylamine-oxadiazole fluorescence polymer PI was synthesized by Pd-catalyzed Heck reaction. Three-photon and two-photon upconversion fluorescence spectra of PI were measured using a femtosecond Ti:sapphire that was pumped by a femtosecond laser at the near-infrared region of 800 ~ 1350 nm. Its three-photon and two-photon absorption coefficient was determined by mearuring the nonlinear transmissivity at a known input intensity level. The three-photon excited fluorescence have been observed with the central wavelength at 525 nm in THF , at 534 nm in CH2Cl2 and at 578 nm in DMF, respectively. The maximum peaks of two-photon excited fluorescence were at 527 nm in THF , at 532 nm in CH2Cl2 and at 573 nm in DMF, respectively. Increased solvent polarity were found to induced a marked red-shift of the emission band of multiphoton pumped fluorescence in polymer PI. The hyperbranched triphenylamine-oxadiazole conjugated polymer displayed large multi-photon absorption and strong upconversion fluorescence properties.
