Nice catch. I used to check USPTO a couple of times a month for new patents and applications. Now I need to check almost daily to keep up.

All of the recent applications include a version of this statement: "NLO chromophores disclosed herein not only have large EO effect, but also have fast modulation speed. In addition, NLO chromophores disclosed herein have superior photostability and thermal stability compared to other EO Materials. As a consequence, NLO chromophores herein are particularly suited for use as EO materials in connection with low power and small footprint devices...".

This is what they mean by EO materials: "EO materials generally fall into three categories: (1) liquid crystals, including ferroelectric liquid crystals, and/or organic liquid crystals having a linear structure with a central core that contains several collinear rings, a linear unsaturated linkage and two terminal chains, and the like: (2) inorganic crystals characterized by a lack of inversion symmetry, such as KH PO (KDP), KD PO, (KD*P or DKDP), lithium niobate (LiNbO3), beta-barium borate (BBO), barium titanate (BTO), and (3) EO polymers, including non-linear optic (NLO) chromophore-polymer composite materials"

They are not comparing the improved properties described in these applications to earlier versions of Perkinamine, but to any EO material. That's bold.
