Design, synthesis and evaluation of redox, second order nonlinear optical properties and theoretical DFT studies of novel bithiophene azo dyes functionalized with thiadiazole acceptor groups

Two series of novel thermally stable second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) heterocyclic azo dyes 4-5 have been designed and synthesized. The two series of compounds were based on different combinations of acceptor groups (thiadiazole or arylthiadiazole electron-deficient heterocycles) linked to bithi...
