Abstract
Functionalized materials that are intrinsic liquids have many potential optical applications. The obvious principal advantage of liquids is that they may be used to fill complex optical structures through capillary action. A new pure liquid nonlinear optical material has recently been successfully synthesized at NRL It is the first example of a soluble lead phenanthralocyanine (PbPhenac) and a schematic of its structure as well as space filling model of one of its conformations are shown in figure 1.
