Porphyrin oligomers are of great interest for technological applications such as biosensors, solar cells and OFETs (organic field-effect transistors). These materials exhibit extraordinary optical and electronic properties due to the π-conjugation. The main characteristics of these oligomers as a consequence of π-conjugation are the high polarisabilities and low energy electronic transitions. Here, thin films of ZnTPP (zinc tetraphenylporphyrin) monomer and dimer were investigated by means of spectroscopic ellipsometry. In the case of the π-conjugated ZnTPP dimer, the porphyrin units are connected through an ethylene bridge. The films were prepared by means of spin-coating method on silicon substrates. The dielectric functions of ZnTPP monomer and dimer are derived from ellipsometrical measurements by employing a three-phase optical model. As expected, the ZnTPP dimer films exhibit a strong red-shift of the first absorption structure, namely Q-band, compared to the monomer case. The spectral changes observed for the ZnTPP dimer films can be interpreted in terms of strong electronic interactions and weak electrostatic ones.
