The excited state dynamics and two-photon absorption properties of four novel triply linked porphyrin dimers in toluene have been investigated. The fused porphyrin dimers exhibit extremely increased two-photon absorption cross-section values (12,000-15,000 GM) compared with porphyrin monomers owing to much enhanced pi-electron delocalization throughout the porphyrin dimer ring.
