Abstract

High structural regularity, second‐order nonlinear susceptibility, and thermal stability characterize the self‐assembled stilbazolium chromophoric multilayers (the structure obtained after the first cycle is shown schematically on the right). A topotactic approach for the stilbazolium chromophore deposition has resulted in conceptually attractive, artificial, acentric assemblies for organic second‐order nonlinear materials. (Figure Presented.)
