Multi-Chromophore Solution advances photonic device development.
2014-04-30 14:32:38| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Used in production of nonlinear organic electro-optical (EO) material optimized for power and durability, integrated Perkinamine™ chromophore technology features other chromophores based in part on aspects of proprietary, in-licensed technologies. When Perkinamine chemical compounds are combined with aspects of in-licensed chromophore portfolios, total chromophore concentration in host polymer system can be improved.
