Abstract

Amphiphilic compounds and oligomers and polymers derived therefrom suitable for Langmuir Blodgett deposition wherein the compounds have a polyamide backbone and hydrophobic groups pendant therefrom which pendant groups preferably contain chromophore groups. The compounds can be used to form non-centrosymmetric bilayers and are useful for forming various non-linear optical elements.
