Abstract

Abstract Image

A series of molecular engineered organic glasses have been prepared to exploit the use of complementary Ar−ArF interactions to improve poling efficiency. These self-organized molecular glasses have also been used as host in the binary chromophore system to further improve the number density of chromophores and r33 values. Ultrahigh r33 values (up to 327 pm/V at the wavelength of 1310 nm) and good temporal stability could be achieved in these materials.
