Dihydropyridines, molecular glasses

Materials that exhibit photoconductivity and/or electrooptical response can be found in large numbers among molecular glasses (Fig. 3.40). Dihydropyridines with Tg 25 C and low tendency of crystallization have been used (e.g., 2BNCM, 73), adding only a small fraction of a binding polymer (<10%), and 2,4,7-trinitro-9-fluorenone (TNF) as a sensitizer [310]. A common strategy is...
