Molecular Dynamics of Flexible Polar Cations in a Variable Confined Space: Toward Exceptional Two-Step Nonlinear Optical Switches

The changeable molecular dynamics of flexible polar cations in the variable confined space between inorganic chains brings about a new type of two‐step nonlinear optical (NLO) switch with genuine “off–on–off” second harmonic generation (SHG) conversion between one NLO‐active state and two NLO‐inacti...

Description
Summary:	The changeable molecular dynamics of flexible polar cations in the variable confined space between inorganic chains brings about a new type of two‐step nonlinear optical (NLO) switch with genuine “off–on–off” second harmonic generation (SHG) conversion between one NLO‐active state and two NLO‐inactive states.
