Abstract: Crosslinked polymeric compositions capable of forming continuous matrices for liquid absorbent, semi-interpenetrating polymer networks. These networks are blends of polymers wherein at least one of the polymeric components is crosslinked after blending to form a continuous network throughout the bulk of the material, and through which the uncrosslinked polymeric components are intertwined in such a way as to form a macroscopically homogeneous composition. The compositions of this invention can be used to form durable, ink absorbent, transparent graphical materials.

Abstract: Devices for and method of generating coherent second harmonic light radiation. The devices comprise a laser source of coherent light radiation at a fixed fundamental frequency, crystalline 5-chloro-2-nitroaniline that crystallizes in a non-centrosymmetric configuration, means for directing the output radiation of the laser onto the 5-chloro-2-nitroanilane, and output means for utilizing the second harmonic frequency.

Abstract: Electron donor compounds for use in electrophotographic constructions must be sensitized to desired regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Novel bis-benzocarbazole derivatives which can be used as organic electron donor compounds have been found to be sensitized by polyquinoid and polyanthroquinoid dyes.

Abstract: Organic electron donor compounds for use in electrophotographic constructions tend to suffer from problems of molecular weight non-uniformity and oxidation. Bis-benzocarbazole derivatives have been found to resist the oxidation and oligomerization which are a source of these problems.

Abstract: Organic electron donor compounds for use in electrophotographic constructions must ordinarily be sensitized to desired regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Highly fluorinated aliphatic sulfonyl, carbonyl, or carbonyloxy dyes have been found to be efficient sensitizers for such organic donor compounds.

Abstract: Organic electron donor compounds for use in electrophotographic constructions must ordinarily be sensitized to desired regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Imidazo[4,5-b] quinoxaline cyanine dyes having phenylsulfonyl or benzoyl substituents have been found to be efficient sensitizers for such organic donor compounds.

Abstract: Organic electron donor compounds for use in electrophotographic constructions must ordinarily be sensitized to desired regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Indolenine dyes having phenylsulfonyl or benzoyl substituents thereon have been found to be efficient sensitizers, particularly in the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, for such organic donor compounds.
