| Design & synthesis of branched (“dendritic”) chromophore-- Self-assembles to provide a material with high performance for information technology applications.
Impact:
Ultrahigh E-O activity of these materials will enable the design and fabrication of innovative devices with very low drive voltage and compact size. It will also offer the possibility to realize direct integration on Si chips. This development provides a new paradigm for information technology with ultrahigh speed and very large bandwidth. |
