Abstract

Progress in employing metal alkynyl complexes as nonlinear optical (NLO) switchable systems is reviewed. The origin of NLO effects in molecules is summarized, molecular switching stimuli and read-outs are briefly reviewed, and switching NLO properties using other organic, inorganic, and organometallic molecules is also briefly summarized.
