Abstract

Abstract

The study presented here demonstrates the application of a steroid, lithocholic acid, along with β-estradiol and cholesterol, to long lifetime nonlinear optical materials. These glasses have been shown to minimize oxygen diffusion and reduce nonradiative decay from excited states, thus extending the effective phosphorescence lifetime.
