 Full text | Abstract: In this article, we review some results of structural studies of a novel series of donor–acceptor bis-alkynyl ruthenium chromophores in the form of thin films. At first, these thin films were oriented by a corona poling technique and were optically characterized using(Second and Third Harmonic Generation, respectively (SHG and THG). Next, the X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique was used to correlate the Nonlinear Optics (NLO) properties and directly observe the structural ordering of the studied materials. The last paragraph presents recent supramolecular modelling studies using molecular dynamics simulations. The used of organometallic films in textronic systems may be of the highest importance in order to achieve the possibility of creation micro-electro-optical sensors and circuits incorporated in textiles. |
