Organic electro-optic materials

L. R., Dalton, etal., From molecules to opto-chips organic electro-optic materials, J. Mater. Chem. 9, 1905-1920 (1999). 

The reader is also referred to other literature for a more comprehensive introduction to various aspects of optical nonlinearity and for more in-depth reviews of certain topics than can be covered in this review [2,3,5,24-87]. It is also suggested that the reader use these cited reviews to access literature not cited here. The literature on the topic of organic electro-optic materials now stands at many thousands of papers. It is unrealistic to attempt to even cite this entire body of literature here let alone discuss in depth all of the salient features of research into organic electro-optic materials. It is hoped that a readable overview of poled polymer electro-optic materials is provided in the following sections and that insight is provided both into the technological potential and problems associated with these materials.
