ORGANIC NONLINEAR OPTICAL MATERIAL

摘要

PURPOSE:To improve the formability and mechanical strength by using a monomer produced by bonding a specified compd. to the ester moiety of polymerizable amino acid ester. CONSTITUTION:A monomer produced by bonding a compd. represented by the formula to the ester moiety of polymerizable amino acid ester is used as a raw material of a nonlinear optical material. In the formula, each of G1 and G2 is a bivalent cyclic or chain group having pi electron conjugated system, each of X and Y is CH or N and Z is an atomic group having a reactive functional group bonding directly to G2 through N or O. The nonlinear optical material itself has optical activity and polymerizability and a polymer of the polymerizable nonlinear optical material has a significant nonlinear optical effect, superior formability and mechanical strength.
