Abstract: The present invention provides a lambda-shaped carbazole based chromophore, and a main-chain NLO polyurethane containing the same. The lambda-shaped structure reduces the plasticization to the main-chain polymers caused by the chromophore and increases temporal stability of the NLO coefficients of the main-chain NLO polyurethane. The NLO coefficients of the main-chain NLO polyurethane are stable because the efficiency of dipole alignment in electric field is increased due to the dipole thereof being perpendicular to the main chain of the polyurethane.
