NLO materials have the property of modifying their refractive index when exposed to light by varying an electric field applied to them. Polymeric chromophores can be crosslinked and simultaneously or subsequently poled to obtain materials with NLO activity comparable to that of lithium niobate while maintaining considerable time stability.
