Abstract
and 4HP in the structures resulted in unexpectedly large birefringence values of 0.376-0.522@546 nm. Furthermore, the compounds exhibit large bandgaps (4.08-4.51 eV), short UV cutoff edges (275-278 nm), and favorable growth habits, suggesting their potential as short-wave UV birefringent materials.
