Abstract

In laser activity 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-2,6-dicarboethoxy-8- cyanopyrromethene-BF(2)complex 5 under flash-lamp excitation was approximately 1.8 times more energy efficient than Rhodamine-B; about the same efficiency of Rhodamine-575 was found for 1,3,5, 7-tetramethyl-2,6,8-triethylpyrromethene- BF(2) complex 2.
