Organic nonlinear optical (NLO) materials with large third-order electronic susceptibility {chi}{sup (3)} are currently of interest for diverse applications in photonic switching devices. In this communication, the authors report our picosecond third harmonic generation (THG) measurement of the {chi}{sup (3)}({minus}3{omega};{omega},{omega},{omega}) of spin-coated thin films of polyaniline and poly(o-toluidine) in their intermediate oxidation state (emeraldine, 1 {minus} y {approx} 0.5), i.e., polyemeraldine base (PEMB) and poly(o-toluidine) base (POTB).
