A General Principle for DUV NLO Materials: π-Conjugated Confinement Enlarges Band Gap*.

Current nonlinear optical materials face a conventional limitation in the trade-off between the band gap and birefringence, especially in the deep UV spectral region. To circumvent this dilemma, we propose a general principle, π-conjugated confinement, to partially decouple the interunit π-conjugate... View More
