ABSTRACT:
Novel acceptor-donor-acceptor and donor-acceptor-donor compounds for use in forming a thermally-stable electro-optic waveguide are disclosed. Also disclosed is a thermally stable waveguide material containing thermally stable acceptor-donor-acceptor or donor-acceptor-donor guest dipole compounds in a temperature-resistant polymer matrix. The waveguide has selected regions in which the net dipoles of the guest molecules are oriented, for electro-optic switching when an electric field is placed across these regions.
