Abstract: Reversible switching of quadratic NLO responses can be achieved in organic and metallo-organic molecular compounds by application of various external stimuli. Strategies for the molecular engineering of switchable NLO materials are outlined (an example is depicted), and practical demonstrations of the switching of NLO effects, such as SHG, are discussed.
