ABSTRACTWe report a novel method to obtain stable second order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties in polymeric thin films. Photocross-linking between the NLO active molecules and a photoreactive polymer is achieved by UV irradiation subsequent to poling. The thin film exhibits a nonlinear coefficient d33of 16.5 pm/V at a doping level of 20% by weight of NLO active molecules and possesses quite stable second order nonlinear optical properties

Electric poling at field intensities approaching the dielectric strength of the film is possible with corona poling. Polymeric thin films with large second-order nonlinearities can be created with this poling technique. In this paper, the corona poling of nonlinear polymeric films at elevated temperatures, processing, characterization and possible ultrashort-pulse applications are reviewed. An experimental technique is presented to measure the electric field during poling of the nonlinear polymeric film. The characterization of orientational order in corona-poled nonlinear polymeric films and the effects associated with the large electric field during poling are discussed. Poled polymeric thin films are uniquely suited for second-order nonlinear optical applications of ultrashort pulses (< 50 fsec) since minimal pulse spreading occurs. The sum-frequency ultrashort-pulse application of nonlinear polymeric thin films and limitations of the thin polymeric films are discussed. Experimental results are presented of a side-chain nonlinear polymer that is ideally suited for ultrashort-pulse applications.
