Abstract :
Carbon-rich organometallics containing rigid pi-conjugated chains are important targets for the investigation of push-pull chromophores and materials for linear and non linear applications. This approach provides a way of realizing new materials with improved optical properties including nonlinear properties and formation of surface-relief gratings (SRGs).
