有機非線形光学材料の分子設計 : Part1 機能性有機分子の分子設計と結晶成長

抄録

Organic nonlinear optical materials have recently attracted high attention because of their superior properties such as larger susceptibility, faster response, multiplicity in morecular and aggregating structures, compared with those of inorganic and semiconductiong substances so far elucidated. In the first, various nonlinear optical effects and their applications are explained. Thereafter, pioneering achievements of opto-electronic properties are summarized. A recent trend in progress and future perspective of the relevant fields are also presented in view of molecular engineering, crystal engineering and morphological engineering, with particular reference to crystallography and crystal growth.
