Prospect of New Nonlinear Organic Materials

  • Conference paper
Nonlinear Optics: Materials and Devices

Part of the book series: Springer Proceedings in Physics ((SPPHY,volume 7))

Abstract

Interest in the field of nonlinear optical properties of organic materials has grown substantially since the demonstrations of enhancement of second- and third-order nonlinear polarizabilities a decade ago. In other lectures of this school a greater amount of detail will be presented about specific materials or structures. In this lecture a broad view of organics in a subset of nonlinear optical effects (predominantly electronic nonresonant second- and third-order effects) will be given. Some reviews of research in this area, which contain far more detail and more complete references than are presented herein, are referenced for readers’ convenience[1–8].
