Second-order nonlinear optical materials: recent advances in chromophore design

Abstract

This paper deals with recent and important developments in the field of organic materials for second-order nonlinear optics. Attention is drawn to current trends in chromophore design with a discussion of current progress and problems in this field. A number of important classes of chromophores, such as one-dimensional charge-transfer molecules, octopolar compounds, ionic materials, multichromophore systems and organometallics, are discussed.
