New chromophores containing a novel pyrrole-based bridge were synthesized and the hyperpolarizability can be effectively translated into large electro-optic coefficients in poled polymers.
A series of NLO chromophores a–d bearing thieno[3,2-b]thiophene (TT) as the conjugated bridge or the lateral moiety have been synthesized and investigated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
