ABSTRACTNew organic nonlinear optical crystal : dicyanovinyl anisole (DIVA) has been grown from vapor by low pressure sublimation and from saturated solution by solvent evaporation. Crystallographic structure and quadratic nonlinear optical properties were investigated. Molecular orientation in DIVA crystal with space group P21, is favorable for the highest possible value of bulk phase-matchable coefficient. Both type I and type II phase matched second harmonic generation (PMSHG) were observed from naturally grown faces of single crystals. Efficient PMSHG was achieved at a fundamental wavelength of 812 and 1064 nm. The efficient type I PMSHG coefficient was determined as deff = 4.9 × 10−8 esu = 40 × (d11 of α-quartz) at a wave.LH length of 1064 nm. Blue light generation was demonstrated by both PMSHG and sum-frequency mixing of the 812 nm laser with 1064 nm.

The application of organic conjugated molecular systems to photocatalysis is based on the charge transition with different electronegative substituents and the electron–hole separation behavior of charge transfer under light excitation. In this work, the relationship between the intra-molecular electrical field and molecular second-order nonlinear optical properties is investigated theoretically by the sum-of-states (SOS) method. We use substituents with different electron affinity energy to construct internal electric fields with different properties in similar conjugated systems. The studies of these systems reveal the intra-molecular electric field strength and mode regulation of nonlinear optical coefficients and explain its physical mechanism. The intra-molecular charge recombination caused by the electrostatic potential multipole field of different substituents changes the transition behavior of one-photon, resulting in the enhancement of nonlinear optical properties (second-harmonic generation and sum-frequency coefficient) greater than 104.

We report the effect of electric field on third order nonlinear optical properties of Hydrazone (Hz) doped Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) films. The films were prepared by solution casting method. Poling of films was done by corona discharge. Single beam Z-scan technique with 7ns Nd: YAG laser pulses at 532nm were employed for the measurements. Third order susceptibility of films was measured with an emphasis on the applied electric field. We also demonstrated the second harmonic generation in the corona poled films.

ABSTRACTThe synthesis and second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of a new family of optically nonlinear coumarin dye-containing polymers is reported. Polymerizable coumaromethacrylate (CMA) monomers having various alkyl spacers (C2 to C5) between the polymerizable group and the chromophore were prepared and copolymerized with methylmethacrylate (MMA) and other vinyl monomers. The CMA copolymers had high chromophoric content (up to 18 × 1020) and glass transitions as high as 132°C. Spin cast films were prepared on BK7 substrates and oriented by corona-onset poling at elevated temperatures (COPET). The poled CMA copolymer films were characterized for spectroscopic absorption and second harmonic properties. A comparison of the nonlinear optical properties of poled CMA-MMA copolymers to poled guest-host systems is made. Relative to guest/host systems, CMA-MMA copolymer films exhibit larger and much more stable second-order nonlinear optical properties.
