The integration of anionic Ti4L6 (L = embonate) cages and π-conjugated coordination cations into ordered structures can produce high-performance nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. More specifically, by employing Ti4L6 cages for assembly with mixed N,N-chelated and P,P-chelated type conjugated organi...
