TL;DR: This short Focus article is a brief personal perspective of some of the key advances in second-order NLO materials and in multiphoton-absorbing materials, and of how and why these advances have led to renewed interest in organic N LO materials.
TL;DR: The current status of organic low-molecular weight and polymeric materials for third-order nonlinear optics is reviewed in this paper, where the importance of organic materials lies in their promise of large nonlinear optical figure of merit, high optical damage thresholds, ultrafast optical responses, architectural flexibility, and ease of fabrication.
Abstract: The current status of organic low-molecular weight and polymeric materials for third-order nonlinear optics is reviewed. The importance of organic materials lies in their promise of large nonlinear optical figure of merit, high optical damage thresholds, ultrafast optical responses, architectural flexibility, and ease of fabrication. Organic materials exhibiting interesting third-order nonlinear optical properties are discussed to illustrate the importance of structure–property correlations. Results on emerging organic materials that include liquids, dyes, fullerenes, charge-transfer complexes, π-conjugated polymers, dye-grafted polymers, organometallic compounds, composites, and liquid crystals are presented. Organic nonlinear optical materials seem promising for a wide range of applications and their potential for integrated optics should be further explored.
TL;DR: In this article, the properties of nonlinear optical and electro-optic properties of organic polymers were investigated and the results showed that the nonlinear properties of polymeric polymers can be improved by using waveguides.
