A new series of thermally stable heterocyclic imidazole-based nonlinear optical chromophores has been developed. These chromophores possess a thiophene based stilbene conjugation pathway with a nitro acceptor group attached to the phenyl end. This feature leads to robust chromopores with high thermal stability and enhanced molecular nonlinearity.
