Property tuning in selected examples of D–π–A molecules has been discussed and
summarized in this review article. The tuning and structure–property relationships have …

In this brief review, nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores widely used in electro-optic (EO)
devices are summarized according to their EO coefficients. The advances of EO modulators …

Currently, there is increasing interest in the use of push–pull heptamethine chromophores
containing the 2-dicyanomethylidene-3-cyano-4, 5, 5-trimethyl-2, 5-dihydrofuran (TCF) …

Exposure to colorless ammonia vapor could result in failure of human organs or even death.
Thus, it is of great significance to build up a portable quick onsite recognition technique for …

Organic electro-optic (EO) materials are of considerable interest owing to their attractive
characteristics for applications in high-speed information processing and sensing. The …

Merocyanines where a polyenic spacer separates a 4 H-pyran-4-ylidene moiety and
different strong organic acceptors have been synthesized. According to NMR studies and X …

A series of chromophores was designed and synthesized using 2-(3-cyano-4, 5, 5-
trimethylfuran-2 (5H)-ylidene) malononitrile (TCF) as the electron acceptor and differing from …

A new series of ferrocene (D) and methoxyphenyl (D′) conjugated DD′-π-A push-pull
chromophores [Fc-(RPh) C= CH–CH= CN-R'{R, R'= H, CN (1), OCH 3, CN (2), H, C 6 H 4 …

A series of highly polarizable chromophores 1–3 has been synthesized based on three
different types of electron donors, including diethylaminophenyl, tetrahydroquinolinyl and …

A series of new donor–acceptor (D–A)-type N-arylated ferrocenyl pyrazole chromophores 1–
4 have been synthesized and spectroscopically characterized. The molecules 2–4 crystalize …
