Abstract
Phthalocyanine-based nonlinear optical (NLO) materials are reviewed, w ith particular emphasis on second-order effects. The requirements on m aterials and molecules for NLO activity are outlined before three rece ntly studied families are briefly considered: asymmetrically substitut ed phthalocyanines (Pcs), subphthalocyanines (Pc analogues such as R t hat in the Figure), and triazolephthalocyanines.
