摘要
A nonlinear optical chromophore for photorefractive applications containing a 2-dicyanomethylen- 3-cyano-2,5-dihydrofuran acceptor group is presented. When doped into a plasticized composite of poly(n-vinylcarbazole), large gain coefficients (Gamma) are observed with photorefractive speed similar to the best composites reported in the literature while maintaining low sample absorption (similar to 15 cm(-1)).
