Design of Polymethine Dyes with Large Third-Order Optical Nonlinearities and Loss Figures of Merit
Abstract
Dying by Design: To make optical-switching applications a reality, losses from scattering and other absorption processes have to be minimized. Hales et al. (p. 1485 , published online 18 February; see the Perspective by Haque and Nelson ) present a strategy to explore the refraction and absorption properties of a group of cyanine dyes for designing materials that have properties corresponding to technologically interesting telecommunications windows. The optical properties of the cyanine molecule was controlled by adding heavy chalcogen atoms (selenium) into the end groups of the molecular structure. While producing a series of molecules meeting criteria for feasible application, the work also demonstrates a route to improve the performance of nonlinear optical materials.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
