Abstract
The phthalocyanines are a class of organic NLO materials that are of considerable interest both for their nonlinear optical1 and their electrical properties.2 The high nonlinearities, chemical stability, and the variety of molecular architectures that are possible make them promising materials for nonlinear optical applications. One application of these materials, optical limiters, already shows considerable promise.
