Ultrafast optical non-linearities in robust organometallic materials

该项目旨在创造具有超快非线性光学响应的有机金属络合物。这些坚固的分子被用来制备表面支撑的纳米结构。该项目将创造具有可逆切换非线性光学性质的材料，可以控制或处理光子学技术中的入射光束。这些新材料将有可能在未来的光电子技术中应用，可能会在澳大利亚创造高技能的工作机会，并提高澳大利亚作为分子材料科学领先者的声誉。

This project aims to create organometallic complexes with ultrafast nonlinear optical responses. These robust molecules are intended to be used to prepare surface-supported nanostructures. The project will create materials with reversibly switchable nonlinear optical properties that can control or process incident light beams in photonics technologies. These new materials will have possible applications in future photonics technologies, potentially creating highly-skilled jobs in Australia and growing Australia’s reputation as a leader in molecular materials science.
