Abstract

Metal-containing (particularly organometallic) dendrimers are briefly introduced, the origin of nonlinear optical (NLO) effects in molecules is briefly summarized, and the syntheses of metal alkynyl dendrimers and progress in employing metal alkynyl dendrimers as NLO materials are reviewed.
