Y. Wang, J. Zhang, X. Wu, Maria Birau, Guomin Yu, Hongan Yu, Y. Qi, Pierre Desjardins, X. Meng, J. P. Gao, E. Todd, N. Song, Y. Bai, A. M. R. Beaudin, Gaetan LeClair] Organic solids and polymers that absorb in the near-infrared (NIR) region (1000-2000 nm) represent a class of emerging materials and show a great potential for use in photonics and telecommunications. The radical anions of stacked aromatic imides, fused phorphyrin arrays, polythiophenes, sandwich-type lanthanide bisphthalocyanines, semiquinones, and mixed-valence dinuclear metal complexes are a few known examples of NIR-absorbing organic materials. Most of these NIR-absorbing materials are also electro- chemically active or electrochromic (EC). This brief review covers several types of NIR-absorbing organic materials and discusses their potential for applications in EC variable optical attenuators (VOAs). © 2013 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston Wang Z.
