Electro-optic crosslinkable chromophores with ultrahigh electro-optic coefficients and long-term stability

Ultrahigh electro-optic activity and high long-term alignment stability were achieved with crosslinkable binary chromophores QLD1 and QLD2 or crosslinkable single chromophore QLD3 and multichromophore QLD4 with large hyperpolarizability using tetrahydroquinoline as the donor.
