Abstract

A new method of preparing oriented NLO main chain polymers is presented. We synthesized NLO-monomers that consist of donor acceptor substituted tolane molecules that can be poled in the low molar mass state. In the oriented polar state these monomers can be chemically linked using a thermally activated polyaddition reaction. This reaction links the donor head of one monomer to the acceptor tail of the next hibiting bulk noncentrosymmetry with the average direction of the molecular dipoles parallel to the aligning field.
