Abstract
Because of advances in optical communications and information storage, researchers have sought materials for devices operating at the boundaries between the electronic and optical realms. Second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) materials, particularly organic polymers, have received attention because of their facility for constructing waveguiding thin films that are capable of frequency doubling or electrooptic modulation in integrated optical circuitry.
