Abstract
Some of the future applications in optical communication systems probably be based on the large second- and third-order nonlinear optical resoonses observed in several organic molecules and polymers[1]. In these compounds, large values of α,β and γ (respectively the polarizability, first and second-order hyperpolarizability tensors) which corresoond to higher linear and/or nonlinear responses of a medium, are found associated with the existence of conjugated π-systems. Finding the structural and constitutive attributes of the most responsive compounds, e.g. by quantum mechanical calculations, is in itself a research of fundamental and applied interest.
