Hierarchical construction of SHG-active polar crystals by using multi-component crystals.
Organic salts composed of chiral amines and sulfonic acid with high hyperpolarizability allowed the construction of polar crystals with incorporated guest molecules. The polarity of the crystals was precisely regulated by employing suitable guest molecules. As a result, the crystals generated a strong second harmonic generation property.
